Anna Safija, 5 years old


My sweet Anna Safija... the minute you were born, you changed all our lives for the better!
You brought so much happiness and laughter into our lives that. For me, you brought that incredible sweetness of being a girly-girl. You love tea parties, playing with your dollhouse, dresses, flowers... everything is 'pretty'... just as your mama would say.  That filled my heart! For Daddy, you gave him a bond between parent and child that brings tears to my eyes. Your love for each other is so strong, it's as if you were one. He is your everything and you are his everything. I don't mind losing my spot as his number one girl to you! For Jake, you are his saving grace. It was hard for him to have an older sister with Autism that wasn't interested in play-time. You came along and his days were suddenly filled with tons of imagination and endless laughter. You made him happy, you brought him sunshine! For Katelyn, you made it easy for her to take care for you. You gave her a new role that made her feel special and needed. You respect her and love her so much, I know you fill her heart. She feels good being your little mama and your sisterhood is beautiful. I will never forget the loving way you look up to her. I don't even want to imagine life without you... you are amazing!

My Anna... you are feisty, hilarious, strong, caring, sweet and smart. Thank you for bringing so much sunshine and laughter into our lives... we love you so much!! HAPPY 5TH BIRTHDAY!!!!~*

LET'S TAKE A TRIP DOWN MEMORY LANE...



 When you loved to throw your food on the floor and laugh when I gave it back to you.




Your favorite person in the whole world...daddy!


Your first ballet class!


When you loved to squish your brother while he was playing video games.



That time you smushed my lipstick all over your lips and said "don't be mad mama"!


Your first time bowling...


The endless laughter between you and your brother!


Jakie reading you a story...


One of your favorite things to do...sit in a box.




Putting stickers all over daddy...


Sister love...


So beautiful when you sleep!


Thank you for being you!


xoxo, Mama

24 DIY Watercolor Gift Ideas - Pinterest Round-up

24 DIY WATERCOLOR GIFT IDEAS - PINTEREST ROUND-UP!
By Arianne Plehandzic

What is it about watercolors that makes us happy?!
I'm not sure, but anything watercolor makes me happy! You can make someone else happy with a diy watercolor gift. I have 24 ideas for you from Pinterest. Let's get happy...!!


I recently took up watercolor painting as a hobby and it has become a therapy for me. 
I have been through a lot in my life and have never tried watercolor before. Little did I realize how relaxing it is for me! It's a wonderful distraction and I love seeing the picture come to life in bright, beautiful colors! I have always loved rainbow colors and flowers. What better way to combine the two, than with watercolors?! I strongly recommend you give watercolors a try...!
