Lots of questions about where I got my daughter’s hat and headband. They are all from Etsy.com (of course). The felt flower headband was from a seller called Lou and Lee – they are no longer selling. The pink & orange hat was a gift but bought on etsy. Sorry I don’t know the seller….

Like I said yesterday, over the course of 10 days all 4 of our kids got sick…each at different times. We wrapped up last weekend with the last kiddo throwing up. It was a long 10 days. When the weekend hit and we still had one sick I decided instead of playing the “Whoa is…

Where is this flea market on main street? I would love to go and cruise it and look for treasures. Such a nice way to “reframe” the negative and turn it into something positive.
This is great! Reminds me of the Sound of Music, “My Favorite Things.” :0)
I like the Hitching Post at 91st & Main, Southern Hospitality (they are moving this weekend and won’t be open for a few months). Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow near 71st & Main sometimes has good stuff. When Southern Hospitality relocates it will be next door to The Hitching Post…yeah!
There is something so good about visual therapy. I love all of the pics and I as specially love Breese’s cute little toesies. I pray that you all are feeling much better soon.

Like many parents I am keenly aware of how my boys are influenced by their friends. Right now they are at an age where I pretty much have control over who they are around…and thankfully there are a lot of really great kids in my circle of friends. As I consider how they are affected…

What a wonderful story of friends standing in the gap for each other. I know we couldn’t have made it through the past 3 weeks if it weren’t for our friends. Praise the Lord for great friends!
It is such a blessing to be surrounded by good friends!!
Ooh, don’t you just love that! Friends come through in the greatest ways sometimes… And it seems like your husband did too!
Poor little guy! I hope he gets better soon! Sounds like you have got some really great friends!
I know that feeling!!! Not long after the big loss in our family Jon was out of town and I was by myself on a Saturday with the kids, one of my friends brought me a venti Cinnamon Dolche Latte and I said I don’t want to get out of bed today, and she said “Ok I am here to lay here with you until you are ready to get up.” It was healing and precious and I was so grateful just to have someone that let me talk, sleep, cry whatever I needed to do THAT day. God sends special people in His time and it provides such a relief. HE is so good.
I would bring you Starbucks anytime!!
After I posted that, it sounded like I was one of the ones that brought you Starbucks…I wasn’t…just wanted you to know I would do it for you!
Friends are such a blessing in our lives, thanks for the reminder! Can’t believe it is 11 years ago this week that we began our friendship on good ole’ Bison Hill. Wow!
Thank you God for Starbucks! My family and friends also know that bringing me a Grande Caramel Macchiato will always fill me with glee….I’ve never attempted a Venti one though – kudos!
How awesome to have friends like that. Makes me want to be a better friend. Thanks for sharing.

Carly - The Lou and Lee shop is planning to open back up at the end of the month. She had a baby and needed to stop things for a few months. Just an fyi for your readers.
Rachel - The pink & orange hat came from Zoe Lynn Designs on Etsy.
pamela - i have SO many headbands from lou and lee! they are great, but acutally quite simple to make yourself. all you have to do is cut a band from a pair of old nylons (opaque work best!) cut out some fet flowers/petals and either sew or hot glue them on! voila!
pamela - felt that is!
Sara - Thanks SO SO Much!
Megan - Hi Ashley!
I love your nursery!! Speaking of “where did you find that”??…Where did you get the vintage looking print with the bird that has a b…ball, etc.?? I love that. You are so creative.
AshleyAnn - Megan, I got the bird print from a random seller on etsy. There was only one. You can do a search on etsy for vintage alphabet cards…that’s what I did. I bought it before we had picked a name b/c I liked the bird…just worked that we picked a “B” name too!
