We enjoyed a super fun playdate this morning, complete with homemade watermelon popsicles, a swingset tutor (what, you don’t have one?), and a DJ mix board for tots–all in the midst of a stunning and warm home. How lucky are we?

Don’t even get me started on the company–precious people. Being a Yankee, I used to wonder at Southerners using the word “precious” for anything but a rare artifact or before the word “Moments” to describe those angel chotchkies. But I get it now. I really do. I don’t think I can describe it, but I get it. What I don’t get is why we have so many of these “precious” people in our lives. I’d say pinch me, but to be honest, I get enough of that thanks to my offspring.

Here we have a not-so-rare (but rarely caught on camera) “precious moment” of O and Ro huddled up and surely plotting.

Thanks to our “precious” friend Kierstin for capturing the mischief. Such a great day!
