Tradition




Every year
well, since Holland was one
We go and get our nails
Halloweenified
Just to be in the spirit of things
Usually it is just our toes
but somehow when I was too into what 
was being done to my toes
I looked over and Holland's hands
were busy
being busied on

This year it was as the little Miss instructed:
Black Toes
with
Orange Pumpkins

So what did you pick for your hands?
Orange with scary guys on them.

Traditions.

Hobbies and New Tricks




Holland has some new hobbies

Handstand
Tree Pose
Upward Dog

She asked that I photograph her and send them
to her Grandma and her Aunties

All while wearing her 'jeggings'
That was for Auntie Jen
Because she would think they are soooooo cute.

PS...Don't mind the messy house, it was the end of a long day!

Mom's Night






I was so proud to watch Holland
do her work at
Mom's Night

She was excited to show me each
of the work stations
and with each one
she wanted to
"do a challenge"

Each work station
encourages
organization
leadership
independence
patterns
texture
function

It is always a good feeling
for me
to see how happy and confident
she is when I pick her up

She is learning so much
and I am so proud to be her Mom!
