Almost Hawaii + winner

As you can clearly see, I missed out on my trip to Hawaii by the skin of my teeth yesterday.
But I was so close.
SO CLOSE.

I took a picture of Noelle’s Mother’s Day cake on top of one of my flea market finds this week-end:

I really needed this very urgently for…um, you know. Stuff.

How often do you sit in your living room thinking: ”If I just had a vintage workbench NOW, how great would that be! I could turn a leg of a chair.”

At least I will never have to think that thought again.

By the way, yesterday my two youngest kiddos woke me up like this:

They danced into the bedroom to this song. 

Apologies, they didn’t dance: they PERFORMED.

Synchronously!

This performance couldn’t have been topped by any trip to Hawaii, to be honest!

p.s. 

The voucher was from Ben.

Noelle’s card read: “I originally wanted to write you a very long and emotional declaration of love, but that made me sick and I know that it would make you sick, too, so just this: you are the coolest mom ever!”

Jil wrote me a very long and emotional declaration of love via WhatsApp and finished with:

"As no gift is worthy of you, you will get none!”

(THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT I WOULD HAVE WRITTEN IN HER POSITION, NOT POSSESSING ANYTHING!)

I should have had more children, really.

I could have had more hair-braiding for sure!
