The Ugly Cry

I hated not posting yesterday, especially with all the sweet comments and emails about the new PPA web design.  You guys are really too sweet and I’m so glad you are enjoying the new site as much as I am.  Thank you and thanks again to Randy.

I was running around like a crazy person in preparation for the Noonday and Matilda Jane trunk show last night and I had zero time to post, but everything got done & the party was super fun.

Brea and Renee were amazingly wonderful.  I have never met 2 more socially sweet people.  They just talked and inquired about everyone.  Thank you both, Brea and Renee, for being fabulous…we appreciate your kindness & love.

The biggest shock of the night was that I only took one little, lonely picture.  This is soooo not me.  I didn’t even realize it until the night was over…bummed.

Really thrilled and grateful for the funds raised…Good time with friends that raises money is perfectly awesome in my book.

My friend Ashley brought Harper a birthday gift last night and it was LOVE at first site…with Harper & me.  How incredibly fun is a giant bucket of colorful linking beads…so fun!

My favorite creation so far…colorful goodness.

I hung Harper’s painting up from her art party.  I really, really wanted to hang it going up our stairs, but Harper really, really, really wanted it hanging in her room.  I can understand that, so in her room it was.

The boys are always in superhero mode.  This morning Huddy was fighting battle.  I think he needs a tool belt or at least something that will hold all his crime fighting gear.  Who knew a superhero needs a wood flute 🙂

And lastly, Harper drew this picture this morning.  Then she went bounding outside to play with Josh and the boys.  So what did I do…I sat at our desk and did the big, ugly cry.  You know the one.  It’s so ugly and it’s semi loud and there was some snot involved and I was most definitely making a horrible face.  Please tell me that you too know this cry?  I may know it a little too well 🙂

But oh how sweet the picture is.  A treasure.  A keeper for sure.

Little brother,

I too love you.

And we are waiting…waiting like mad for you.

And I also really, super love love you.

Love, Mom.

Have a great Easter weekend.  Happy Friday!
