{Mock-A-Rita | Wordless Wednesday}

125/365

Smiles From the Heart:

Waking up to sweet words from the hubby.

Shopping for all of  the supplies to make a special dinner.

My littleman taking a 3 hour nap when he got home from school.

My baby girl playing to her hearts content in the garden hose while her brother slept.

Surprising my kidlets with a “Special Drink”. (Recipe can be found here.)

Enjoying the warm evening outside in our jammies after bath time.

Doing a million cartwheels and handstands for the benefit of my babies. I was completely dizzy, but my heart was smiling… hearing them giggle always does that to me. <3

Watching my babies delight as they attempted cartwheels and handstands of their own.

A friend (who might just be the unofficial president of the unofficial Sarah Henderson Photography Fan Club) and all of her encouraging complementing words. This cracked me up: “You need to update your blog. I’m thinking twice a day. No more than three though.”  Thanks Kim!! You always bring the biggest smile, and the reddest cheeks to my face! :) (She is also going to kill me for the whole “Wordless Wednesday” thing. lol)

Ok, so not exactly wordless per se, but I had much to smile about today! Feeling quite blessed by that!

{Back in the Game}

I have been seriously AWOL for over a month. I am not quite sure where the month of April went. But I do know that it has been a whirlwind and I am still trying to catch up with myself. I have lots of blanks to fill in but here is a start. We had an amazingly gorgeous month. April showers evaded us, but May has already made up for that. Unfortunately we have had one illness after another in the last six weeks beginning with Garrett’s stomach bug ( You might remember the “Green” post from March). With the exception of recurring ear infections, pneumonia, the stomach bug again, and now strep throat it has been nothing but sunshine and rainbows in the Henderson household! :) But lets talk about something much more fun, shall we? Something so charming it is sure to melt your heart. Let’s talk about the wedding of Q and U hosted by Kindergartners. Brace yourself for cuteness!

I was an honored guest at the wedding of Q and U along with many QUeens and QUarterbacks. The wedding was hosted by Mrs. Mertins and Mrs. Amos’ Kindergarten classes. The event was put on to really solidify the QU sound into the students minds, and to remind them that the two always go hand in hand (a short list of exceptions exist but at 5 and 6 years of age they don’t need to worry with that. Heck, I don’t even worry with it. lol). A QUartet sang during the ceremony and a reception complete with wedding cake, punch, and dancing followed.  It was a fun day full of interactive learning! Oh to be in Kindergarten again…

Our QUarterback:

The QUeen, The officiant, Grandma Charlie, Punch, QUill to sign in with, simulated version of The Grand Exit complete with bubbles, Our Quarterback, Our QUarterback again:

Smiles From The Heart:

Quarterbacks and Queens… and the innocence of kindergartners!

Spending a week doing lots of activities with both of my kidlets school classes.

One on one field trip with my littleman.

One on one field trip with my baby girl.

A friend watching either of my kids at various times as I went from one dr appointment to another on their behalf.

Garrett:” Liar, Liar Pants On Fire!” Avery tattling: ” Momma! I not a FIRE!” (I probably shouldn’t laugh but I can’t help myself!)

My baby girl proudly bringing me a present. Four strawberries, each with a bite out of them. <3
