"I was born with a bronze skin and I like it. Some of my friends were born white or black or yellow. They were not consulted. But that's all right. There are yellow roses, white roses, and red roses and the fragrance of one is about as nice as another." ~Chief Walking Buffalo

Time and Tide wait for no man, but time always stands still for a woman of thirty. - Robert Frost

I had my 30th Birthday yesterday and I have to say I think it was my best birthday yet. It was simple and quiet and spent with my favourite people. I missed of few of my other favourite people, but I received lots of well wishes and felt loved and missed!

Thank you everyone for remembering!

30 feels fabulous! La la la la la la la Life is Wonderful.

I got severely spoiled by my husband who wanted to give me something special to mark the occasion. Near the time of the ultrasounds for each of our pregnancies, I received a beautiful keepsake to honour each of the girls. That was at about the halfway mark for each pregnancy...maybe this will be a good omen and signify the half way mark of our adoption process...

"The tongue taco" (um, yes, she made that up herself):

March was a lion

Birthdays, Anniversary's, Dance recitals, Out of town guests - March was full of fun! And since a picture says a thousand words, I will save myself some time:






































A craft that the girls and I did for Nana and Grandad's anniversary. I am so pleased with how it turned out.


Makin' room for more...the two girls move in together:
