Dreaming of Mickey

My Daughter fell off her bed two nights ago and landed with a thud.  By the time I made it to her room she was wandering around in a drunken-like stupor, not quite sure of what happened.  I moved her mattress to the floor and sat there with her.  She had a lot of trouble falling asleep. 

"Sometimes I have trouble falling back asleep when I wake up in the middle of the night," I told her.

"Why?" she asked.

"Because my eyes are awake, my body is awake, and my brain is awake."

"What do you do?" she asked.

"I find a comfy pillow....something to snuggle with...and then I close my eyes and think about Mickey's House,"  I told her.

I like to thing of morning's like this:

When Marmee Comes

I know that scant few words have been written recently.  My mom, the kids call her Marmee and I do too for that matter, has been visiting.  It has been glorious.  It is harder and harder to have her leave with each visit.

I have so enjoyed my time with her as her daughter and a mom.  I love watching her with my kids.  She makes being a mom seem easy and fun.  I love sewing next to her, something I hated as a child, but now I am finding is enjoyable and interesting.  She taught the very, absolutely basics while she was here, but I now know how to make skirts for my girls, drawstring bags, and rolled ribbon flowers.

Thanks to my sis-in-law I am also a huge fan of Pinterest (CraftieGal).  Oh dear lord how great it is.  Many of the things I found I have seen before, but I could not tell you where or when.  I am so glad to have all those things in once place, especially art projects for my kids.

With all that said, I have some wonderful things to share with you in the coming weeks.  Fabulous crafts, arts, and clothes, and even more tips and wonderful things about WDW.

I have been dreaming about The Mouse.  I'm sure you are too.
