Wow, August already! How are you all doing? Have you enjoyed your summer so far? I am amazed at how quickly the time has flown by.
As I am sitting here getting ready to post about our Monday’s Montessori Moment, I am overcome with emotions.
I just had to go back and read this post about the foundation of a child-friendly home. The part about “do as I do, not as I say” really had me reflecting on myself and how it affects my girls!

Am I the only mom who feels as though my little girls are growing up at lightening speeds? Maybe it is because:
- our oldest daughter is starting Kindergarten this fall
- I will be starting the Montessori lessons with our youngest who just turned 2 (wasn’t she just born yesterday?…sniff, sniff)
- I just started my new work from home job (part-time)
- I will be reaching a new milestone this month – turning the big 30!
Who knows what it really is, but it has given me time to reflect on my life. I am so blessed and have so much to be truly thankful for! I just want to soak up every single moment and treasure it forever!
Ok, enough rambling I suppose! How about I just share some pictures from our week! Look at all the FUN we’ve been up too!
Baking Yummy Cookies & Blueberry Pie!
Swimming while mommy & daddy put up our feet and relaxed!
Working with the new dressing dolls.
Object sorting:
Other Fun:
And the girls especially loved this practical life work…

You guys have been busy! I need to get out the scrub brushes and water, too, but it's been so hot here! The dressing dolls are fabulous!

The temps have already been a little cooler here lately but it is sad (yet exciting) to see all the back to school sales. Summer literally flew by but I LOVED every minute of it! Came over from picketfence blogs!http://frugalfreegal.blogspot.com
