"Practical" is probably not the first word that comes to mind when someone is searching for adjectives to describe me. Sometimes I get teased a little about my "impracticalities". And that is okay...I don't mind.
I distinctly remember being at a mall with toddler Katie and buying her a new outfit because she got the one she was wearing got dirty. I am sure I did the same thing with baby Shelby. However, I know for certain that Weston's shirt got turned around to hide the spills...and sometimes even put on inside out. I think that with more children has come a little more practicality and sometimes decisions are based on what is quickest, cheapest, and easiest.
But sometimes I do things that are not quickest, cheapest, or easiest.
I thought it might be fun to make hair flowers for the girls in Shelby's class for Valentine's Day. When I mentioned it to Shelby, her eyes lit up. I knew then that we would do it.
We assembled and glued twenty hair flowers last night. It took about two hours. But it was worth every impractical minute because we spent the time together.
