truly lovely

i didn't have a post prepared for today... 

but my daughter woke up a little early 
so my husband brought her downstairs to play with her toys 
while he finished getting ready for work.

as i'm finishing up my quiet time, i hear 
"oh buzz, i love you. [breaking into song] i love you so much, i love you so much, 
i can't even tell you how much i love you".

i walk into the living room to find this:
a tea party for buzz and "annie" the dog.


"i put cinnamon in it"
"buzz. you love it?"
"he need more"
what could be lovelier? 
yes, i snapped [and edited] the photos and pulled together this post in 3 minutes flat. 
but they're priceless to me.

PS: as i hit "publish" on this post, a frantic [almost] 2 year old little girl came running in:
"trash truck here! go see him? go see him!?!"
she loooves the trash truck.
it's tea parties and trash trucks over here, guys.

to wipe away your yelling

one of my favorite things to do in december is to drive around to see the lights. our neighborhood is huge, and we have some seriously awesome houses. one of them is our next-door neighbor, so we don't have to look very far it we don't want to. but at least five or six times in december i would stick the girls in the car and drive around our neighborhood to spot the best-decorated houses. one particular evening, as we were driving, i asked my three-year old if she remembered what was so special about Christmas. "it's when Jesus came to see all my presents!" that's when you know you're doing a good job, right? yeah, so i gently reminded her that Jesus came, in fact, to wipe away our sins. after a thirty second pause, she wondered out loud: "He came to wipe away your yelling?" straight.to.the.heart. "Because when you yell, that's your sin. and when i don't listen to you, that's my sin." yes, right again. i found
