  • My biggest find of the year (ha!) thus far. Free and downloadable from Ana-white.com. Making Pottery Barn furniture on a Walmart budget. Rock on girl. I'm begging Stefan to start with the Learning Tower and Doll highchair. Word of the day: restraint.
  • One of the prettiest textile pieces ever.
  • Awesome NYT article on getting children back into the groove of PLAY and why it's so important for development. I jump right onto any train that tries to bring back recesses.
  • Already on my pre-order list. Third book due out in August. Can't wait!
  • I've still got Christmas money to burn and I've recently sampled this album. Any Decemberists lovers out there? Do you like this one?
  • Such wonderful photos to start the year off right. I love the bird one.
  • If you're a recycler, repurposer, or a 're-styler' (er?), join up with two of my favorite bloggers who will be sharing fabulous redos with Project Restyle.
  • If you know me at all you know I love my birthday. I've already begun my wish-list in my super.secret.notebook; reminiscent of Harriet the Spy. On it is this, this, this, and this!
  • I'm totally getting Lukka this magazine for his reward as finishing his first year of homeschooling. It's the same age group as his birthday mag, Ladybug only 'science and nature' infused. I love this company and highly recommend their ad-free reading material.
  • Um, omygosh, I die. I am totally pining over this Little Passports idea for future homeschool use.
  • I've got a thing for headbands. There, I said it. Now I need to make this turban one!
  • If I had any amount of room on our walls in our office/sewing room, this would make it's way there! One of my favorite mottos.
  • I love every.single.thing. in this etsy shop. Clean and crisp, simple, natural and beautiful!

How To: DIY Sand/Water Table

How To: Build A Sand/Water Table for Under $30 ! Sorry this took me so long to blog, but I had to have a tool list and full instructions before I could do so. A little history on my love for the sand/water table . I love the idea behind tools for tiny hands, i.e. the Montessori Method , and like to have Lukka 'figure things out for himself', even when he is playing. I try to have the most simple and basic toys available for 3 reasons: a) simple toys generally have less parts, which means less of a hassle for me b) simple toys inspire way more creativity and imagination than do 'exact replica' toys c) they are much more aesthetically pleasing to look at, therefore, not making every nook and cranny of our house an eyesore! I know the last reason is just for me, but it's true. Plastic things don't generally last 1/2 as long as wooden or fabric toys, and they are unattractive. For this reason, I started to look for a wooden sand/water table as opposed to a pl...

We've Gone and Done It

We are in the midst of packing up, and moving. Not just any move, but The Move we've been trying to accomplish for years now. We're heading up to (Washington) Canada. In the last couple of months Stefan had been talking to a potential employer up in Richmond, British Columbia , and after a very swift interview process they offered him the job. Small and large details aside, he accepted and plans to start on February 25th. We leave one week earlier, on the 18th. That's literally just over 2 weeks from when you will read this. We told family and close friends first, and while we haven't been keeping it a huge secret, our church, as a whole, did not know until last night because it was then we could tell everyone at our seasonal congregational meeting what our plans were in person, and with many of them all at once. I didn't want to say anything online until that happened. We've been steadily spending heaps of time with friends and family, all while slowly p...

{This Moment}

A portrait of his sister. From Soulemama's blog : A Friday ritual. A single photo - no words - capturing a moment from the week. A simple, special, extraordinary moment. A moment I want to pause, savor and remember.
