Oh Happy Day!

it's a state holiday, and you know what that means..... this mama is off for the day!!!!  so i figure, what better day to pull up the ole' blog and begin anew!?!  elizabeth larson.... this is for you!  (you can go and see beth's blog HERE! you'll love it from the minute you begin reading - pinky swear) 

*********************

so here's the latest and greatest from my little corner of the world:

i am absolutely loving my new job!  i feel like i have found my happy place - what i was meant to do... interacting with people, helping people, teaching children, being a ray of sunshine to someones otherwise cloudy day... it's amazing!  

and every morning when my feet hit the pavement i feel blessed to be where i am!  

AMEN.

josie is doing spectacular at daycare - she has made SO MANY new friends & is taken care of beautifully!  we love our provider - A-mazing! SHE ROCKS!

ALLELUIA!

i did not think i would survive at first.... my heart ached for her, but after seeing her GROW and BLOSSOM into a smart, compassionate, sweet little love... i am confident in our choice.   

now....

onto some things that are making me SMILE!

we used this picture for our "New Years" card!

~came across this this morning - love it!  and who doesn't LOOOVE cookies?

have you been getting Spring catalogs in the mail???

it absolutely sends me into SPRING-MODE.. as in, wanting to paint everything bright colors, got to the grocery store and bed the florist to find me some tulips for my table... that kinda thing:

for instance...

loving this little number.... thank you very much Boden Spring catalog!

isn't the simplicity of this cute?  with some deck shoes??

darling!
