I ♥ Faces "A Touch of Whimsy"




I ♥ Faces is hosting a "A Touch of Whimsy" theme this week. We’ve even been encouraged to think “pretty”, “whimsical”, “playful”, "quaint”, “fanciful” and “oh-so-lovely” when picking our entry this week’s photo challenge.

I so enjoy the whimsical part of having a 3 year old little girl ... and the fact that she has a sweet little friend who lives just across the street makes it twice as nice! My mom blessed my daughter with the perfect gift for her birthday in May ... A Castle! Yes, her very own castle ... I wrote more about that day here. The girls have loved putting on their princess dresses and playing in the royal castle. Their dresses and hair and smiles make me think "a touch of whimsy" ... but i guess when they have 5 older brothers between them they are not likely to ever be ALL whimsy. Take note, that though they are beautiful giggling princesses they have been confiscating their brothers weaponry and stock piling it in their castle. Modern day, independent princess who protect their own castle maybe? Or just cute three year olds who love to play with their brothers' stuff. Either way I love their giggling faces!

Princess Mary Gets a Castle





Most of my blogging lately has been around loss and grief ... probably because we lost a baby that was greatly wanted and we are still hurting. But there are bright spots in our days and I thought I should share some pictures of one of those bright spots.

For her birthday our little Princess got a castle in the mail ... yes indeed, it was sent in pieces in a box ... thankfully her big brothers are pretty good at putting things together.
