It kills you to see them grow up.  But I guess it would kill you quicker if they didn't.

It is official. Winter hats, boots, mittens and coats have all been removed from my entry way. There are three bags to be donated of clothes and boots that won't be making it to our next winter.

Does this officially mean that spring is here? I spoke with a mom yesterday who said that she is going to keep the mittens and hats around just a little bit longer. Personally, I couldn't be happier to see them finally go!

Unfortunately, living in an old Toronto home means that we don't really have much storage. Where to put all of the winter coats, snow pants, scarves, mittens, boots and hats for next season? So far they are squeezed into the back of Husband's work-clothes closet in the basement. I am sure to catch heck for squishing his suits.

Today I wore SANDALS! If that doesn't say, "Hello sunshine!" I don't know what does. Of course, if was just a reminder of how neglected my poor feet have been all winter. Yep, time for a pedicure. Except that I had strangers touching my feet. And I am extremely ticklish. Even more so with strangers. So that leaves me with the at-home option. Luckily, Daughter loves nail-polish just as much as the next four-year-old girl, so I have an assistant.
