Happy Mother’s Day

I love thinking of Mother’s Day as a celebration of all women who nurture. Here’s hoping we all get a little extra love back this weekend! And a little tip if you get a flower arrangement – don’t overwater your blooms! Two or three fingers of fresh water in a vase is just enough. If…

I love thinking of Mother’s Day as a celebration of all women who nurture. Here’s hoping we all get a little extra love back this weekend!

And a little tip if you get a flower arrangement – don’t overwater your blooms! Two or three fingers of fresh water in a vase is just enough. If you change that water every other day, your flowers will last twice as long. These peonies are more than a week old!

Also, the adorable Summer Bellessa and Brooke White from the Girls With Glasses Show asked me to participate in their Mother’s Day video. I had a funny voice from a cold and the background noise is bad (why did we film this on the roof again?), but we still had fun :)
 

Have a great weekend, especially you hard-working mamas! xoxo

  1. And there you go showing off that lovely dresser again ;) Happy Mother's Day and thanks for the fresh flower watering tip. I love peonies and these are gorgeous! Have a lovely weekend too!

  2. Happy Mother's Day Jenny!
    Do you have a source for the drawer pulls on your dresser in the photo above? I know you said they were from ebay but wasn't sure if you could pass along search terms or the seller that you got them from. Thanks!

  3. i love your tip about being completely present, even for a short time each day. so sweet. i read that if kids have you on the floor with them, even for just 15 minutes a day, it can help with all sorts of behavior problems, etc. so sweet.

  4. Really enjoyed watching your video! It's beautiful. I have 3 little boys, 5 and under and I loved the point you made. I make sure I sit down with each of them at some point throughout the day and give my absolute undivided attention. I ask them questions about their day and get them talking about things that are important to them- their answers are priceless and it's definitely the favourite part of my day! Thanks for reminding me how special it is.
    Happy Mother's Day!
