Praises of a Wife and Mommy

Day 21: Have a Party!   Play prompt: Have a spontaneous party for no reason at all! It could be a  teddy bear's picnic  with a toy tea set and imaginary food. Invite all your child's favourite toys, make some invitations, set out the places, turn on the music and enjoy! Or find some left over party plates and napkins and spread them out on the floor (or in the garden) and serve up some  real food and drink! The first thing we decided we needed to have a party was some yummy brownies!  So our day started in the kitchen!  Since we were doing some Christmas pictures my daughter was able to get her hair done all pretty which went well with our party theme!  Look at her beautiful curls and braids!  She sat very nice to get her hair done... I have noticed that when someone else does her hair she is perfect but when I do her hair she whines and cries and claims I hurt her all the time when I am being gentle.  Anyone else have that issue?...

I know I have mentioned that we had found a house we liked but have decided to wait because we are in a lease.  Even though the lease is month to month it states you need to have a 2 month notice of leaving and they do not allow people to leave from November-March because of winter unless we find a sub leaser, which is something I did not want to stress about.   The house was a foreclosure and was a great price!  It is not my dream house with  granite countertops  or a hardwood floor, stainless steal appliances, but it was in a great neighborhood and had a huge front and back yard.  It is still for sale at the moment which surprises me because I really thought it would go fast.  It was listed $50,000 cheaper then what it sold for in 2009!!!!  TALK ABOUT A DEAL!   Who knows maybe come spring we can put an offer on it.  God knows best for this family so I will trust his leading.  He knows the desires of my heart and I know he knows...
