BFFs


There is NOTHING better than a BF and the unabashed confidence that they bring to your soul.
Maclaren celebrated her good friend Samantha's birthday today. In preparation, she pronounced that she was going to write "Sammi" a song. She was feverishly writing away when I accidentally walked through the room humming and she pleaded "Mom! Please don't sing. I am trying to focus!"

In the last minute chaos of getting her out the door, I totally forgot about the song (and so did she). Later, I found her "song notes."

Obviously she is inspired by her daily dose of K104.7 (which she became addicted to when it was all-Christmas-music-all-the-time) whose playlists feature tunes like "Escape" (The Pina Colada Song) by Rupert Holmes and "Forever Young" by Rod Stewart. Move over Burt Bacharach!

Did I mention jelly beans?

Another fun Easter with our friends the Grimes during a weekend getaway on Lake James. Fun, that is, if you consider fun to be one kid puking in the car and another fracturing her collar bone after jumping on (and falling off) the bed. Well...Party on!
