sound like nicknames!...Have you ever walked by the mirror, glanced and then did a double take because you didn't see yourself, but instead saw a family member???...mom? dad? maybe even great Aunt Mae? For me, this seems to become more of an issue as the years tick away. Sometimes it makes me smile, other times I cringe...wow, i'm getting old. On the other hand, sometimes I look at my little girls and at certain times can see myself. When Anna has her hair a particular way she reminds me of old photographs of me at the same age....and when Josie is sleeping, she looks just like I did as a baby. But, other times when I look at Josie, all I see is her daddy!! My quote for March is so true!! Family faces are exactly like mirrors (just much more fun to stare at). This quote is so creatively hand painted on a piece of wall art we were given for Christmas from my mom. In the center is a small place for a photo--one that I suppose should capture the meaning of the quote. I have to give a quick plug for this because what a great gift...for yourself OR for a loved one. Check out SugarBoo Designs: (click on photobox collection for all the options)

Also, lately I've found myself loving to dress my girls in Matilda Jane clothing. Every garment is unique & whimsical ....just defining little girl. I'm am especially fond of the knot dress...you will probably see my little ones running around in quite a bit of Matilda Jane this summer. Hard to find...great gift for that lucky little diva.

So strap on your seat belts cause it might be a wild ride.

While Ellie was at school last week, I dropped Cole off at the babysitters so that I could go to physical therapy. The kids were so excited to see Cole and were yelling hi, to him and to Ellie not realizing that she was not there. Anyway, this little girl came up to me, looked at me and paused for a moment, then said to me "You look just like Ellie". She had to be only 5 or so.....
