A taste of spring

The maple taffy wasn't that good. But the weather was glorious. And talking with her sitting in the snow while the kids climbed on the boulder was the best part.

Sick

Two sick fairies, in and out of bed, sunrise to sundown. Lemon thyme honey popsicles. Painting fireworks. A new client. A super long bath. While I don't like to see them feel this way, I love that added tenderness that sickness always seems to reveal.

Work. Clean. Repeat.

A makeshift office in the gymnasium during circus class. Watching her read to her sister for 30 minutes during the violin lesson. Spelling while making sushis. A new dress. Almond croissant. A very clean house. Two visits. One ACCEPTED offer. OMG.

Dance!

It's been a crazy, crazy week. We haven't had that much work in years (but we sure are not complaining!) and we just put the house for sale! So, we were really looking forward to the Dance Party our friends organized for their son 10th birthday to get out and have some fun.

Evan is a self-taught dancer and he pretty much dances all the time, so this party was HIS night! It was so great! Even the adults ripped it up on the dance floor!

 :: A real dance floor with strobe light, a giant screen and papa and big brother as DJs ::

 :: Delicious and healthy mocktail bar, with professional barmaid Liz ::

 :: Amazing art projected on a giant screen ::

 :: Evan taught the other kids some choreography. Here: Gagnam style! ::

 :: Great games to get the kids that were more shy to get into the groove ::

  :: An a make your own sundae bar with homemade caramel and hot fudge! ::

Superheroes

Superwoman dropped a few balls today. 
Oh well! I guess even superheroes have rough days…

The best medicine

Today was all about the food. Apple pie chia seed parfait for breakfast. The sweetest clementine juice for snack. Sautéed kale and perfectly roasted potatoes with a side of delicious veganaise for lunch. Apple-lime-kale green juice appetizer. Crudessence quinoa wraps for dinner and Lemon coconut hemp seed bites for dessert. The best medicine!

Creative messes

A day of creating. Leftovers for dinner. Charades. Polly Pockets doing all sorts of Olympic competitions. Bobby pins and hair clips all over the house. Face painting. Good messes. The kind that I don't feel compelled to clean up right away.
