[Hello? Is it tea you're looking for?]

Must share this even though my blog is pretty much dead by now. I have a friend who loves tea so I made this herbal tea gift for her. I think Lionel Richie should start a tea company. What do you think? A great idea? 

[aivan ihana! :)]

Löysin tämän täältä. Kiitos Clarissa! Just what I needed. J

[would you?]

I. Would. Pee. My. Pants!
I wonder how much they paid these poor people to get them to do this with a smile on their faces...

Mummo on paras! J

{you are a princess!}

Ever since I was a little girl, I've been drawing princesses.

I drew these ones for Sienna to color. It's hard to find cute, original coloring pages so I added these designs to my Etsy shop as well.

These are not just for young girls. I think you are never too old to color. 

I hope all of you women out there remember that you are a princess!

Tässä hauska juttu jonka luin Facebookissa:

Nyt tiedän mistä jenkkakahvani tulevat! Kun olen suihkussa käytän aina shampoon lopun vartalon pesemiseen. Tänään kuitenkin tajusin että siinä on teksti: lisää paksuutta ja volyymia. Tästä eteenpäin käytän suihkussa vain astianpesuainetta. Siinä lukee: poistaa itsepintaisen ja pinttyneimmänkin rasva!!!

Happy Friday everyone! :)

{i'm addicted to exercise!!! what? is it the end of the world?}

i have finally found a form of exercise that i love:
brain exercise!

i just can't stop exercising. help! (i thought those words would never come out of my mouth J)

my grandma has alzheimers and my own memory is absolutely horrible at times.

you can exercise your brain just like you exercise the rest of your body.

if only regular exercise was this much fun... sigh. J

try it:

Tamagram

Find an expression to define the picture below, and then rearrange the letters of it to form a 9-letter word. LLL, for example, is THREE L'S, which is an anagram of SHELTER.

END

__ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ = __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __

here's another one:

Word Ladder

Change just one letter on each line to go from the top word to the bottom word. Do not change the order of the letters.

HAIR

____

____

____

BALD

and one more:

It's Old

Can you determine the first letter in this progression?

__, E , L , N , D

{for all of you busy moms out there}

"Motherhood is a statement about our nature, not a head count of our children. Some women give birth and raise children and never 'mother' them. Others 'mother' all their lives but have never given birth. We can provide something of our divine pattern, the maternal prototype, for each other and for those who come after us. Whatever our circumstances, we can reach out, touch, hold, lift and nurture." Patricia Holland

“One cannot forget mother and remember God. One cannot remember mother and forget God. Why? Because these two sacred persons, God and mother, partners in creation, in love, in sacrifice, in service, are as one.”

Thomas S. Monson

“While we tend to equate motherhood solely with maternity, in the Lord’s language, the word mother has layers of meaning. …Motherhood is more than bearing children, though it is certainly that. It is the essence of who we are as women. It defines our very identity, our divine stature and nature, and the unique traits our Father gave us. …For reasons known to the Lord, some women are required to wait to have children. This delay is not easy for any righteous woman. But the Lord’s timetable for each of us does not negate our nature. Some of us, then, must simply find other ways to mother. And all around us are those who need to be loved and led.”

Sheri L. Dew

It seems like I’ve watched a million sunsets

And stared at a thousand full moons

Sometimes it feels like I’ve been here forever

And sometimes it all feels brand new

I could never count the heartbeats

From the day I was born until now

But not a singe one goes unnoticed

By Him who breathes life in me somehow

But if there were no more tomorrows

If I knew that I could not stay

I know how I’d spend every moment

If I only had today

          I’d hold you and listen

          And I’d let the dishes sit in the sink

          I’d tell you I loved you over and over

          And for once I’d just let the phone ring

          Then I’d remind you of forever

          And how our love would never change

          If I only had today

I’d wake up before the sun did

And I’d watch as you quietly sleep

I’d pray for time to move slowly

Knowing the moment won’t keep

All the gifts that Heaven has given

Every blessing that’s come my way

Wouldn’t mean anything without you

So if I only had today

          I’d hold you and listen

          I’d memorize every detail of your face

          I’d tell you I loved you over and over

          I wouldn’t let excuses get in the way

          Then I’d remind you of forever

          And how our love would never change

          If I only had today

There’s no time like the present

Life doesn’t come with any guarantees

The sun will set and time won’t wait

So while I have today

          I’ll hold you and listen

          I’ll let the dishes sit in the sink

          I’ll tell you I love you over and over

          For once I’ll just let the phone ring

          And I’ll remind you of forever

          And how our love will never change

          Because I have today
