Call It Complete

I love those days when things are completed. Today, we completed painting our kitchen....baseboards, trim, and walls. Maya and Brooke completed paintings for their playroom (we bought the canvases in the summer!). I completed my detox. Tony completed setting up our new TV. And I am going to complete my day with a hot tea and a good book before bed!

Forever Friends

So very grateful to have spent time tonight with our good friends: Heather, Jimmy, Brendan, and Timothy. It is something special to have friendships that are so full of ease and that stand the test of time. We are so lucky!

Moved By Music

Today I was reminded how music can move us and reconnect us to our soul. The head of The Oneness School in Chevy Chase, Andrew Kutt, came to our school today to teach us some songs and give us some new ideas for storytelling, circle time, and art. 

I loved his "zen" energy and the ease in which he led us in song. Definitely made an impact on me!

New Baby in the Family

I am so excited to be an aunt again! My brother and sister-in-law, who live in Kansas, are having a baby boy in February. I only wished they lived closer!

P&W Nail Spa

Tonight I want to acknowledge the owner of the P&W Nail Spa in Perry Hall (I regret that I didn't get his name!). I have been wanting to get a pedicure for about a week now and saw my chance tonight. I was running very late due to a doctor's appointment and dropping the girls off at soccer practice. I didn't get to the store until 6:45pm. They were not busy (no other customers) and looked like they were about to close early.

I asked if they were closing and the owner said that they were about to, but I was welcome to come in and get my pedicure. He was pleasant during the pedicure and didn't rush a bit. The pedicure includes a leg and foot massage and the chair that I was sitting in had a massage pad on it so my back got a massage too. Needless to say, I was in heaven!

I am grateful for the chance to "treat" myself and for the kindness shown to me tonight.
