1. Life and health. My uncle found out today that advanced cancer is riddled throughout his entire abdomen. You can be sure I hugged my kids extra hard tonight as I reminded myself that every day with them is a gift.
2. A dancing daughter, beautiful girls, and fancy curls. My sister-in-law's sister (got that?) got married last weekend, and the little girls had such a blast dancing at the reception. Lauren also go to hold one of the bridesmaid's bouquets for awhile, which she thought was fabulous.

3. Fall. It is without question my favorite season. It is beginning to feel less and less like we live on the surface of the sun, a few leaves are starting to change, and the grocery store is full of pumpkins and all manner of other gourds. I let the kids each pick one to paint. Lauren thought her arms made a better palette.

Like the post-nap hair?
