Tea Parties all day long...

From the tantalizing aroma of freshly baked banana bread,
to the soothing sips of a simmering beverage,
the kitchen is the heart and home of our fondest memories.
As a frugal mom, it's a temptation to create a
"don't touch, that's expensive"
environment.
Instead, create a haven that whispers,
"You are my special treasure, and all that I have is yours."

Almost daily, when my girls ask for something to drink,
they pick one of my special cups.
I take this mundane moment to remind them of the true treasure they are
simply because...

they are fearfully and wonderfully made.

And this ordinary moment
becomes extraordinary.
They don't know it now,
but they will...

What are you going to do today to change the mundane to the marvelous?

And just so I don't lead you astray as to the pristine, prim and proper bonnet wearing (learning how to stick out her pinky finger when she's drinking) cherub that I am raising....

Now, that's more like it!

And I do believe that these pics were taken first thing in the morn
and that was orange juice in those tea cups. :)

This is all part of our Beautiful Life (brought by the Inspired Room).
