{pretty, happy, funny, real}


~ Capturing the context of contentment in everyday life ~


Every Thursday, here at Like Mother, Like Daughter! 


{pretty}


After three seasons of a wreath bedecked with autumnal dried flowers, I finally pulled it apart and gave my front door a fresh look! I like to think of it as appropriate for the 4th of July, but not so holiday-specific as to look out of place for the rest of the summer. 


Or perhaps even longer, knowing me. 

(Patriotism is always in season on a military base, right?)

{happy}

While I gardened, my little boy practiced sitting and explored the grass.


{funny}

Pippo's daddy throws him much higher than his mama is willing (or, for that matter, able) to. Pippo loves it.

And somehow manages to chew on his hand the whole time!


{real}

Soon after I wondered whether a steam mop would help get my floors clean, I happened upon one for cheap one at Salvation Army! Having never actually seen a steam mop in real life, I didn't realize that it was missing a few parts. (I do have the lid to the water well; it's just not on in this picture). I think I might be able to get replacements for the missing pieces from the company, but that seems like more trouble than I'm likely to get to anytime soon.

But a piece of string and a refrigerator magnet clip later, we're in business!
