"Life is fleeting. It is to be enjoyed."-Tori Amos
One morning this week my 4 year old daughter woke up asking for her cousin to come play. We had a car to get washed, groceries to buy, dinner to start, and schoolwork to be completed. BUT I told her that we would try our best to have her over some time during the day. While out grocery shopping we stopped in the dollar tree and stocked up on some fun craft supplies: glitter, foam crowns, and sequins. I was able to talk to my sister n law and arrange a play date while our older kids were at church later that afternoon and evening. It was perfect because I was able to give the little girls my full attention so we could make beautiful princess crowns. We couldn't have asked a more glorious evening, so I set up all of our supplies on a picnic table in the yard. I gave the girls the glue, paint, glitter and sequins and let them have fun until their hearts were content. Glitter was thrown, paint was spilled, and the mess was everywhere. It was wonderful. Everyday beauty....it's a true gift indeed.
