Too Much?

I remember before I had my first child thinking that I'd keep things "grown-up" looking. Toys put away, art work neatly filed.
Maybe I'm just getting older... but I feel so much more cozy and at home amidst these masterpieces. :) Is it too much?!?
I laughed tonight when I walked in the door and realized we may very well have gotten just a little bit carried away!
These flowers were a gift from a child, pulled sweetly from a plant in my friend's front yard. :)
(Sorry Rachel!)
But also not... they are sooo beautiful :)
I've realized that my favorite snacks are very often what they would choose now.
My favorite cards are from them...
And somehow Sam can even get away with playing Toy Story right on my kitchen counter.
And... (hold onto your hats...) even near the coffee pot! Not for long... but still... :)
Their creativity and love for what they do is one of the most beautiful things I've ever seen.
I don't think there could ever be too much of that :)

So sweet. You always have things just right. And...I love your new blog background. I would've picked that, too. See? We were meant to be sisters!
