In this busy month of sewing and sewing and mailing, I am often working while my three people are together. I love that my studio is in my home because, when I am not making pancakes or reading books or playing airplane, I get to hear it. It’s a funny and fabulous way to witness my family, actually.

Love it!!
Disaster not kind.
But the rest of that post? Priceless.
Maybe one of my favorites. Evah.
“have you any wolves”
HA! I totally honked at that one.
And Andy going, “Seriously”.
Don’t forget the pal. It kills me. He always says seriously, pal
The “pal” KILLS me! So funny I can just hear the practiced patience. We are always calling Ben “bud” in the same tone, and I catch him muttering replays of our conversations to himself: “{tsk tsk} it’s bwoken bud, sawee. Sawee bud, sawee… Ssssokay bud…” cracks me up to no end.
Awesome. I sit here grinnin’.
OH I needed this!
Burb~What fun to have your children emulate the love you show to them!
Ruby~You crack me up, I see a a book in your future….You Are My Sunshine!
Margot~You are the wise one, so thoughtful in all you do….I Love You A Bushel & A Peck!
Andy~You are a good sport & one fine daddy!
I love you all!

Classic song misinterpretation that she made up, which still totally makes sense, but makes it a very different song. I bet, in her head, it makes a lot of sense to give wool to the wolves. 🙂
Hahaha…I nanny for two little boys, and that entire conversation is totally reminiscent of the countless times I’ve eavesdropped outside their bedroom door as they play with their toys. So funny. Kids are the best.
My goodness. They are seriously cute. This post is one of my favorite!
To echo the first comment, I LOVE IT!, too. Nothing makes my Mama-heart sing like hearing my two smalls playing creatively and imaginatively together, and it only soars higher when Daddy is in the thick of it with them. It makes being busy at your own tasks a million times easier when you can hear those quality reminders that life is happily humming along nearby.
“And disaster not kind” – LOL! fantastic!!
I love hearing my loves all together, too! 🙂 makes me appreciate the relationship they have with their Dad!
tell R And M to direct pressure on his bleeds and ask him where the stomach pain started, what he was doing when it started, if it’s radiating out anywhere, or if there is pain upon palpitation. And they are completely correct: in severe situations, babies and necklaces are always the best choice.

Can’t tell you how much I love this. I used to write down my boys’ conversations and the last one I did, they were playing “Doctor Appointment.” One was the receptionist and would call in the “next contestant” and Doctor diagnosed his very sick contestant just by looking in his ears. I will never forget when he declared, “Yep! Ya got scabs.”
Hope this comment makes it through… My last one on Margot’s lunch never did.
It’s here mama! Thanks for trying again. x
Hi Nici
I LOVE your pine cone trees! What a wonderful craft to do with my girls. How did you hang the wood to your ceiling? Please advise! Have a great weekend. Happy Turkey Day and Happy Birthday Ruby!

I used monofilament and decorative metal tacks and that was it! I should mention that this stick is old and weathered and very, very dry. So it is super light! It’s one of the reasons we chose it. The tacks hold it just fine. If you had a heavier stick, you could use those hooks that anchor in the ceiling but then you’d have some post-holiday patching to do!
so, i have a 14 month old and a 2 month old. i have a tough relationship with my own sister, so i have a hard time thinking they are going to be little best friends. but. your girls relationship is magical. i can only hope and pray to cultivate a love like your girls have. someday, i will get to hear these sweet little convos from down my hall. oh i can’t wait.
Love that you can overhear such awesome conversations while working! 🙂
