Three ~ Theme Thursday

I went through my photos quickly to find one that would fit today’s theme of Three and found this of Three of the cousins snuggling on the sofa at my parents’ house earlier this summer. I love how Ella is staring at her big sister and cousin, and how both of the big girls are looking down. Those eyelashes!!

After I uploaded it I realized that I have my own little theme going this week.

Sweet, sweet Emma.

Note her hand on Ella’s chin here, just as it was on Addie’s chin in the Best Shot Monday… I’m not sure where she got that from (do I do that to her?), but she really is cavity-inducingly sweet sometimes.

Grumpy Grumblings…

I had a few fun stories to share from today, but they are just going to have to wait. I need to put myself in a time-out because I am so very frustrated after a really rotten day.

The quick synopsis of the day: pissed-off J. (beautiful way to start the day, let me tell you); dealt with a whiny, WHINY, very ill-mannered 4-year old who just wouldn’t “for the love of God, STOP WHINING;” wrestled a 2-year old who seemingly doesn’t believe she needs to nap anymore, yet cannot stop crying over every little thing after being allowed out of her baby jail; fought about 100 believed to be “winged termites” that infested my kitchen while I was trying to make dinner and bake bread; and have spent the last 2 hours trying to figure out why my laptop keeps telling me that it needs to restart.

I think I am just going to write this whole day off. Go to bed. Hope tomorrow is better. It has to be better, right?
