on the way home from DD {{bc apparently there was NO preschool today for jk...it's no prob, really...we just rushed around and scrambled and got in the car and then when we got there and there was no school...well, there were tears...thus DD}} , there came a moment of sincere sadness in my heart. jk: " mommy, i want to look like brookie" "why sweetie? you are the perfect jada" jk: "i don't like my brown skin. i want peach skin like brookie" i just sank. does that not make ur heart want to break? a 3 yo is struggling already with her skin being different. then, this happened: brooke: "jada, god made you and he loves you. he does it all right the very first time" then, i think my heart grew three sizes . jada threw a big smile up on her face and said, "ok. god loves me" now, if we all could just do that. god loves us...he doesn't make mistakes...he makes perfect works of art. sometimes there are scratches in the art.

I haven't seen that in a long time. I'll have to introduce it here again.
Funny - she looks like she means business!!!!
What mom doesn't want her little girl to become a man so she can find a husband! Hahaha!
Hopefully she will also figure out the "being yourself" part that goes along with the movie.
Maybe one day the kids will understand and then it will be that much more sweet.
Have a great day!

Oh and BTW - Love Etsy, I'm a total addict too. Thanks for the compliment on the shoes too - I can't wait to wear them all day every day. Ha! Ha!
Ooooh, I just realized I forgot to post the awards you gave me. So sorry! I was doing a post on the Crispy Kale and realized I never did the post! It will be up tonight along with the Crispy Kale recipe!
Marshmallow fondant is just like the real thing, but it actually tastes good, unlike the real thing, which always gets peeled off the cake and left behind!
When I worked a bakery/cake shop, my boss HATED doing fondant and almost refused to do it, but she didn't want to lose business, so I got a little experience using it there.
So glad to 'see' you over at my place--thanks for the sympathies on my poor gardening talents! I'm enjoying perusing your posts and look forward to reading more about your crew!
Blessings!
