Slow Motion

I've always said it, that the more I have to do, the longer I take to get it all done. This week has been no exception. Mostly, I felt as though everything was moving very quickly around me... but I, was in slow motion. My own little coping mechanism, at this crazy time of year. We attended Angus' end of year concert at preschool and it was absolutely adorable. Brought tears to my eyes, that's for certain. Something about watching a class of four year olds sing The Lion Sleeps Tonight, just got to me.

We celebrated the fifth birthday of a very special young man, with a lovely pool party and lots of fun and laughter. Today, we hit the beach, as the temperature soared... and enjoyed a tasty, greasy, lunch of fish and chips, in a cabana overlooking the ocean. And I have continued to receive THE most gorgeous photos from friends and customers, with their precious babes sporting Button Tots creations. Easily the best part about this small business of mine.

  8. Hi Julie..what counts the most is working on maintaining (as much as is possible..hehe!) two happy boys and a peaceful household. We always find the time and energy for the most important Christmas preparations and the rest just slide by...and don't let it worry you. I did put chair decorations on my list after seeing a fabulous idea on someone's blog...but I don't think they'll get done this year nor will the million fancy desserts that I've drooled over. As long as there'd plenty to eat and drink and some presents for everybody..Christmas will be fun!
