smiles and giggles.

We had such a nice day today! Emily's finally feeling much more like herself and was in the best mood when we got home after taking the boys to school (yep, we walked to school with a wind chill of 12 degrees! brrrrrrrr!). Anyways, I decided I needed to take a few pictures of her silly little self.

giggles. like her momma.

my goodness. I just love her.

she's a ham just like her brothers!

After my grandma passed away in January I cut a few clippings off of her snowball bush, researched "viburnum propagation" and set out to grow my own! I made 4 soda bottle terrariums (yes, like everyone's made in school!) and then did one just in water (Daniel said he thought that was the best way to root a plant so I figured I'd give it a whirl!).

I put them all in a windowsill and they've been sitting there for a month and a half. I look at them multiple times a day (they're right by Copper's crate so anytime I put him in and let him out I see them). Back to the point of my story though, I locked Copper in his crate this evening and the kids and I left to go get milkshakes. I looked at the plants and saw nothing different. We got back home and I let Copper out and found this:

I'm taking it as a sign from my Grandma that she's ok and is always with me. :-)
