Open House Night at the kids' school.
Because they are so eager to show off all the amazing, fun, unique and creative projects that they made in preparation for this one special night, and I am consistently blown away by the sheer awesomeness of it all.

When my kid loves the skirt I made for her.
Because when I realized she had busted the knee out of a super cute pair of jeans I immediately thought to repurpose it into a skirt like the one I had made for myself a couple months back. And she adored it, and insisted that I wear mine on the same day so we could be twinsies.

Morning snuggles with my wee one.
Because there's something extra sweet about stolen moments with just one child at a time, like when this one wakes up a tad early so I bring her into my bed where we snuggle together in silence for a bit before deciding to take self portraits instead.

A New Madonna cd.
Because ever since the first time I heard "Lucky Star" and watched her bop around on MTV wearing black lace gloves and a gazillion crosses, I was hooked. Sure, I know, she's not terribly relevant these days... But every time the lady M releases new music, my inner 12-year-old secretly goes, "squee!!"

Beer can chicken.
Because whoever figured out that shoving a beer up inside a chicken carcass would make it juicy and delicious is a genius, and I salute you, sir.

Edie being a bookworm.
Because she begged and pleaded with me to let her buy a 7-book set of fairy books at the school book fair, then promptly went home and devoured three of them that night.

Unexpected thank you notes.
Because when you are approached every other week by neighbor kids selling something or other to raise money for this fundraiser or that school program, it's nice to receive a handwritten note of thanks from your neighbor's 12-year-old daughter. Reminds me that chivalry is not dead, and good manners go a long way in my book.
