Five

Gideon turned five on Saturday, St. Patty's Day! 
I made him wear a holiday bow tie, and he camped out at the front door for all the world to see, like a proud lion guarding his den (only in this case it's more like a circus lion in a goofy costume).

[I love the bottom right picture. He's got Ben the Bachelor butt-crack hair. 
Sorry, Giddy, I tried to brush it in a different direction!]


My dear girl came back from New York today. Met the group at the train station this morning so that I could help get everyone back to their cars. She headed straight back to school :-( Got to snuggle with her for a bit while waiting for luggage. 

[A text below from her this past week where I commented on some photos posted on Facebook of us taken at the train station when she left. This one made me smile, really big.]



Mom gave me these pretty silk flowers which made their way to a basket on my coffee table.



And a mason jar gets a gingham ribbon and a butterfly and holds Shabby Chic clothespins (love this line at Michaels!) and a sprig of pussy willow.

Gideon looks adorable and I know you were glad to have Harleigh back from the big city even though she headed off to school. I haven't seen those clothespins but I'll stop by there tomorrow (with coupon) to check them out.

Hugs, Gretchen
