Things That Are Awesome
:: Rainbow cupcakes. Not that I really need a reason to make cupcakes, but these are adorable! (And Janie loved helping to mix all the colors - so its educational, right?)
:: A pedicure with purple polish. (Also:: alliterations.)
:: My new Amy Grant mix on Pandora. Woohoo! High school memories!
:: Visits from Grandparents.
:: Playdates and meeting new moms.
:: An empty laundry basket. (Things that are Not Awesome:: forgetting to start the dryer.)
:: Opening every single window in my home.
:: Hunky Husband dusting off the patio furniture for an outdoor dinner.
:: Dark cherry hot chocolate from Starbucks.

A random assortment of thoughts...
1. I really liked doing the gratitude posts in November. It's hard to be grumpy about the little stuff when I'm spending all day on the lookout for things to put in my thankful list. Thinking about starting up again for the New Year.
2. My daughter just turned 5. Which is wonderful and completely unbelievable at the same time. This expression pretty much encapsulates her feelings about the matter:
3. She had a very fabulous, very pink Hello Kitty party. I tried to make these lovelies for the party - results were the biggest FAIL ever. So we had pink cupcakes instead.
4. We got her a new big-girl twin bed for the big day. She big-puffy-heart loves it. And I was surprising unsentimental about taking apart and then selling her toddler bed.
5. For some reason, Jane has started calling me Ma instead of Mom. I'm going with it, but not sure that I'm loving it.
6. I'm discovering that five-year-olds like to ask a lot of questions. From today: "Ma, what would happen if the car melted while we're driving?" "Ma, what if our eyes stayed open all the time and we never blinked?" Am now feeling like I need to revisit some of my early education.
P.S. I spied these during a recent trip to Target. The yumminess is off the charts.
