easter,eating and relaxing

Finally some time to just mellow down and do something and nothing. Having M back in the house is just perfect. We were truly happy to see each other again after almost 8 days apart. The first night she held her arms around my neck half the night. I woke up, well woke up about ten thousand times she smiled and said: mamma. It's so incredible how much warmth and sunshine that word can bring. I admit I love being a mom, even if it is really hard sometimes. Especially trying to be patient and understanding and at the same time be the "boss". At this age, 3 she is trying to take control and exploring her own personality. She is soooo different from me sometimes. And that is so hard not to make her do or think things my way. I have to let her figure out her own life, but I will try to guide her and be there when she has questions or when she makes a wrong choice and celebrate the good choices!
Something she loves is dressing up, yes I know a lot of girls LOVE it, but I hated it, kind of still do. I feel most comfortable in soft, loose fit and sneakers. M loves to dress up and create her own style, mix and match. And I think she does a good job to. The outfit in the picture is all her style. But she still is not afraid to try new stuff and get dirty. This winter she demanded skis. I hesitated for a while because I thought it was just a phase. After 14 days of asking me every day I bought skis. And she turned out to be this natural skiing talent. In kindergarten they asked how long she has been skiing, and (very proud mom :-D ) said, she skid for 15 minutes yesterday for the first time. She skid every day for the rest of the winter.















Celebrating a dear friends birthday last Friday was one of the funniest nights I have had in a long time. Laughing is truly the best medicine for a stressed life. The birthday girl made this awesome punch. She called it appletinis, mmmmmmmmm and a lot of chips, dips ,cheese and other stuff I never got a chance to taste( I prioritized the punch..) So thanks a lot sweet lovely Diamond for a great night. And not forget the little fire lady, so sorry you got sick after trying to keep up with me....
But as Easter is coming to an end I'm looking forward to spending time with Sunbeam and "the law". This summer will be full of adventures.
