Replaced some of the girls’ art today. They have been asking for a while. I have to say I’m a bit sad to see those drawings they made when they were just a toddler and a preschooler come down - there is nothing quite like those first family portraits in a mama’s eyes (or heart) I think. #raisingartists
Two and a half years apart to the day #sisters #thesearethedays
10:33: None of my kids are asleep although they are all in bed. Every night but Thursday we have a nice bedtime routine but Thursday is the only night they all have activities. By the time we get home, have snack and showers for everyone I’m done for the day too. Thanks everyone who joined in - I loved seeing all your glorious ordinary ❤️ #goodgifts #onedayhh
8:45: With my little gymnast picking up a few things we needed for an activity tomorrow and adding on some late night munchies too. #donotshopwhenhungry #onedayhh
7:45: On Thursday nights I love it when the yoga schedule aligns with the kiddos activity schedule and I can fit in a class. Tonight it didn’t but I still fit in 35 minutes of laps between drop offs/pick ups 🏊‍♀️ (Officially the weird lady taking selfies at the pool tonight as well 🙄) This is what #selfcare looks like for me these days. #onedayhh #mamaswimmer
5:00: Supper - making it is the worst part of my day, the conversation while we eat it one of the best.
3:50: Sun already low in the sky and I’m enjoying its presence while I put away groceries and start supper and listen to Wintersong by Sarah McLaughlan. #onedayhh #canadiangirl #beautyoutsidemywindow
