First, I wanted to thank everyone for their kind words on my yarn dyeing tutorial. They mean a lot to me. That colorway was something I had been searching for but could never find so I had to make my own :) It's been used for K's socks, C baby's sleepy sack, K's secret surprise, ornaments, and more ornaments (to appear this Wednesday). It's my favorite yarn colorway so I know I'll be making and using more to come!
My friend Shelley over at Waldorfmama is celebrating a week of rainbows starting today and I thought I would join her. Here are a couple of our rainbows bringing happiness to our home.
Rainbow air element
Rainbow broom
C's favorite toy - the rainbow stacker (missing a piece stolen by the kitties right before the picture was taken)
K has really been having a hard time lately. With turning 4 soon, the impending move, Daddy being gone for 2 months, and just her strong-willed nature - I can completely understand! We are trying really hard to take some time away from our stressful lives even more right now to help her through all of this. Last weekend we went to her favorite spot (only a 5 minute long bike ride away) to feed the geese. This really made her day.
She climbed up a tree to get a better vantage point for feeding them when we started getting low on bread.
Kevin and his favorite gray goose.
I hope everyone had a great weekend!

LOVE the rainbow broom, that's new to me. Where did you get it?
I sympathize with all of you! My Mia goes through similar "difficult" phases...it can be very hard for everyone involved...my mother gave me the best advice when I was at my wits end right before Mia turned 4 she said, "this too shall pass." And it did...and it will again! We love those same rainbow toys at our house!

Lovely pics...I love the elements pic especially. I'm sure once you're at your new home your little one will be filled with the excitement of meeting new friends and a new adventure. By the way, we just ordered that same Rainbow Broom from Nova and can't wait to get it!!
thank you everyoneboatbaby - we bought it from nova natural a couple of years ago. our pet rats chewed up the handle on it last year, they loved that thing!they have both since passed away so it's our sweet reminder of them now. both girls liek to use it to help me sweep, which i love!
kimberley - thank you! i have to remember this will pass when we are in the middle of it. i get caught up in the moment sometimes :(
thank you everyone! i have a lot of packing to catch up on tonight.
Nicole, I am sure you are doing a wonderful job at giving K what she needs. So good of you to give yourselves the time to slow down. Good luck with the packing! (I've done it way too many times...)
oh my goodness love everything rainbow!
And very impressed with the proximity to the goose - yikes, that'd make me nervous :)
Nature is so soothing. She looks so beautiful in the tree...I would love to see more children in trees.
loving your rainbows this week. :) love the goose pic, too!
