It's true, we're biased, but this is one cute soccer player!
We've been very fortunate the last two soccer seasons. Mia is on a great team with great coaches and great kids/families!

Spring Dance Pictures
I just got the girls' dance collages back from their spring dance showcase. They are pretty darn cute, if I do say so myself.

Nerd alert...
Consider yourself warned, the following post is quite nerdy. I've been on a cleaning and organizing spree for the the last 6-8 weeks. You would think my house would look spectacular, but I have found, that years of clutter and general craziness that is life are quite difficult to undo. However, things are looking up! On Monday, I organized two of what I lovingly refer to as "my dirty little secret" areas. Yes, that's right. Not one, but two...in one day! I really should have taken pictures of my pantry before I cleaned it. It was ridiculous and it looked similar to this:
Now, I have this gem: |
I am literally feeling like a young child on Christmas morning. |
My children have all remarked that they cannot believe this is our pantry. |
I can't either!

Father Time, please slow down.
What is a daughter...
She clings on to your heart like a plug to a sink
She drives you all crazy with make believe games
She’ll have you believe that fairies fly planes
She often comes in with imaginary friends
And can draw on their dads with permanent pens
She has pretty parties with dolls as her mates
But then runs straight out and she swings on the gate
She listens to stories of love and romance
Then shoves a live frog in her best friends pants
At night when asleep the angels go quiet
I often do think that she could start a riot
She looks like a princess all said and done
And uses mums lipstick to draw a big sun
All over the walls and down the settee
Her face is alive and she giggles with glee
Its then that you have to be strong and quite firm
For if you stand back she will never quite learn
And learn things she does most every day
She learns how to get things her very own way
She came into your life and captured your heart
And then from that time you won’t stay apart
You may keep your son till he finds a good wife
But your daughter is your daughter for all of her life.
