have a care-free weekend

As our toddler, Violet, adjusts to having her baby sister around (no longer just the bump on mum's belly), I am adjusting to having a messy house again (lest I forget the chaos a newborn can bring)!  This picture reminds me that chaos isn't always a bad thing...it can spark joy and excitement into what was once a predictable routine.  The toys are everywhere, the sink's loaded with a few days of dishes and emails have gone for days unanswered.  All of that can wait, but witnessing Violet discovering how fabulous her purple sunglasses are, can't.
