totally crushing on spring

facebook was good for a few things other than wasting time. mostly for finding those great soul friends that we somehow lost touch with through the years. rex is just one of those girls. we finally got a chance to catch up this week, we talked for hours while the kids skitted about. little did we know what the quiet skitting was truly about.

really, i wouldn't have let my kids do this at home. but watching it happen, watching their happiness and glee, laughing till tears ran down my face; really i can't wait for the next mud pile to happen. i never had this experience as a child, and i'm just glad that our kids have the opportunity.

so what opportunity will you allow today?

it may just bless your life with TRUE magic and love...

This is what being a kid is all about to me. I love that even though this wasn't your childhood, that you can share their bliss and allow your kids to have a taste of it and then some.

Your kids can come and play in my mud anytime!

oh mama!
playing in mud puddles are some of my most vivid and ALIVE childhood memories.
my children are covered head to toe nearly every single day from march until november!

this is love.
