Like this from Here's-your-one-chance-Fancy-don't-let-me-down. (And, yes, we did sing The Circle of Life as the Mountain Man ate his first egg from our backyard):
And finding Bella with blue, purple, and peach tiger stripes (somebody found her mother's rarely used makeup):
And this moment of pure summer lovin' for my Javinator:
Summer is just a few months in a year, a few hot and sticky and busy months that require more juggling and patience from me. And that's okay.
Don't get me sad that summer is ending. Sigh. Okay, I'm sad. It's gonna go. And I'll be left with that feeling that I didn't do enough, didn't make enough moments for my kids to hold on to.
But if I'm smart enough, I'll look back at my !!! posts and remember...remember that the moments are there whether I make them or not. And, for the 100 photos I've captured there were a thousand more that went by without a camera pointed to take notice.
:)
summer for me is my husband complaining all the time about the heat so I am ready for it be over but I love living through everyone elses pictures.
My oldest spent the morning screaming because his sister dared follow him around our house. Our house is tiny, there really wasn't many other places she could go. Good times. I keep reminding myself that school starts on Monday. Starts on Monday...
Still loving all your pictures! I don't want summer to end and yes, despite all the chaos!
Damn. "Circle of Life" is now stuck in my head. Damn. Damn. Damn. Wait...hold on a sec...no, it's still there. Damn.
PS: Bella makes a lovely tiger.
Don't let summer end! I'm not ready for the cold!
Ok, the make up is SO FUNNY!! LOL And I know I've told you this before but I LOVE LOVE the name Bella. If I had a little girl I would name her Bella. <3
Ah, little girls and makeup--they just can't resist! Glad Fancy is earning her keep! Every time you post chicken pictures, I grin at the screen like a dork.
Your Feel Good Friday made me smile; thanks for sharing
yes, sweet summer is almost over.. I dont' know if I am sad.. or excited..
Ok the makeup pic is priceless!!!!
Amen. Ours is winding down and out as Jellybean's mood medication ran out a week before her doc appt. Lovely, eh? But still, it's our summer and we are making the most of it. Looks like you guys are too.
Yay for real, natural eggs with no chemicals!!!! I love it!
Love the makeup moment and you are right - summer is just a few months a year. It is a time of exuberance and the kids seem to be radiating, the smiles never coming off their faces.
