a little practicality
Here is my sweet Ellie Belle in her favorite hiking dress. I say "hike" and before I know it she comes spinning out of her room in the famous green dress along with a pink bag for collecting pretty things along the way. This time she opted for boots in case there was some snow. If it was up to her she would have brought 3 pair of extra shoes so she could change depending on trail and weather conditions. Ohhhhh the time I spend talking her out of things. Trying to reason... trying to teach some practicality. I feel it is my duty as a parent to teach at least a fraction of sensibility but I always wonder if it is worth it. It never quite seems to sink into her fancy thinking patterns. Truthfully in the end I would be sad if my little miss girly, big ideas, everything needs to beautiful all the time, why can't I bring 20 things and outfits everywhere I go girl became little miss practical. Although on occasion would be nice for the sake of time, convenience, and sanity.

This just makes me laugh...you have such a cute way of journaling it all down. I so want to meet with you and your kidlets.

yes, i still wanna plan camping sometime this month. maybe we can run into our drunken friend and he can explain once again the dimensions of Noah's ark. That was a crazy night. you tried to save his soul and todd gave him 10 bucks...poor guy.
i love the glen hansard song on your playlist. I've worn out my cd of the soundtrack. good stuff.
This is a girl with my own heart. I take a variety of shoes when I hike as well... smart chic.
