Hey friends, it’s another Friday, whoot! I’m happy about that although I don’t know why since I’ve only got doing my taxes on the agenda for the entire weekend so that’s certainly not exciting at all. Blah. I do hope your weekend will be 100% more exciting than mine that is for sure.
My sister and family are getting a new little shih-tzu puppy in a couple of weeks and she sent me this super cute picture from the breeder this morning. I just had to share it because not only is she a cute puppy (theirs is the black/white one), but a look it’s a cute puppy in a BASKET!! I so want her but then I remember all the work and change my mind 🙂
So as you know today is my daughter’s 19 birthday and she’s away at University and so to stay connected with her today I thought it would be fun to send her 19 texts throughout the day of all the ways I love her. I hope she likes it! I just love birthdays and I love to spoil my kiddos on their special day. If you are looking for some ideas to celebrate your child’s birthday here’s a great post I read today with 15 Ways to Make Your Kids Feel Special on Their Birthday. Awesome ideas.

I know we are already into April but when I just had to share these sweet FREE daisy desktop and smartphone backgrounds with you from A Houseful of Handmade. I just love daisies and I thought these were so pretty. You can also download them without the calendar as well which is super awesome.

How Clutter is like a Koi Fish ~ @ My Love For Words
“I’ve finally realized that it doesn’t really matter how much space we have. This isn’t a space issue; it’s a stuff issue. If we don’t have systems in place to take care of our possessions, clutter is inevitable… especially with four kids. However, I’m starting to realize that even the most elaborate systems can’t corral everything when you have too much stuff.”
Have a great weekend everyone and don’t forget to make some time for organizing.
