special for daddy
Daddy's favorite animal? Polar bears. Neve drew this polar bear eating the sun and a rainbow just for her "big daddy."

ready to celebrate
Balloons from Gran and Papa delivered just before the first guest arrived! Our eye pillows with the lavender the children picked at the lavender festival last summer. Neve wanted "waffle sundaes" so we had carob waffles, berries and vanilla bean cashew creme. At 6am we were in full party gear. Neve picked the fabric and mama made her pants. She was thrilled with the decor and wanted to hand out her eye pillows right then and there.

shorter, shorter, shorter mama!
Noah was mistaken for a girl one too many times. It was happening everyday. He was refusing to take his hood off when we were out.
"Mama, I just don't want someone else saying I'm a girl."
I've been trying to stall. Lee tried, he showed him photos of the gold medal winning "flying tomato". It bought us another 24 hours. But tonight Noah needed his hair cut. This isn't the finished product as he kept running to the mirror, running back asking me to cut more. I tried my hardest not to steer things...but I asked...pleaded really...
"Don't you think it's perfect now?"
"NO. Shorter mama."
So I did it. I was in shock and he was running all around the house with crazy excitement. At bedtime his rose was his new haircut. He gave me a huge hug and a gentle kiss on the nose.
"Mama, you give the best at haircuts. I love you."
Now he looks like he's 15 and I have a big bowl full of beautiful angel hair that I just can't toss in the bin.
