Crazy...

So things have been a little crazy over here since we got back from CA...
So crazy, in fact, that a couple days ago
-while I was running around like a headless chicken getting things done -
I stopped to put Mr.blue eyes down for a nap and suddenly felt something foreign in my hair that I could tell was definitely NOT a bobby pin or rubber band!

I freaked out a little...okay, a LOT...but very quietly considering I had a sleeping babe on my chest.

As I pulled the foreign object out of my tangled mess of hair I prayed and prayed it wouldn't be a little creature.

And then I saw it...and laughed hysterically.
because I found this...

where did I pick it up?   
I don't know.
how long was it there?    
I don't know.

What I DO know is that by the time I found it, I had already dropped green boy off at school,
gone to the gym, the grocery store, the post office, picked up green boy, talked to his teacher, said "hi" to the mail woman...and more.

All with a plastic yellow spider ring tangled in my hair.
THAT'S how crazy it's been.

I know this informs you of the fact that I don't wash my hair everyday...
or every other day for that matter,
but I'm okay with that.

You need to know that my life is crazy, imperfect, smelly, messy, and tangled sometimes.

And even with all that my life entails and my slight mortification at this yellow discovery,
I found this moment on my "little things" list because it made my heart smile.

Let YOUR heart smile...and document your treasures.
We would love for you to SHARE them!

Parking Lots

What do you see when you drive through or past a parking lot? I see cars, yellow lines, people, carts, etc. Well, obviously my son sees life differently than I do...

The other day we were driving past Sam's Club on our way home and Andrew said... "Mom, cars park in 'H's' ". I said..."What?!?" I proceeded to think, "Man, this boy is starting to come up with some crazy ideas". He then said again with more intensity, "Look Mom, cars park in 'H's' ". I took a moment at the stop light to try and look through my little boy's eyes and finally saw it...cars really DO park in 'H's!!! I laughed outloud! Andrew has taught me many things so far in our journey together, but I love it when he helps me see the world through his eyes. Gosh, how I love that child!
