Somehow I got dragged into taking a saw to the saw shop. Thanks Loggerman. Then somehow I got dragged into weeding the garden.  None of these things were on my to-do list.  Why can't I learn the art of saying NO!???

Since this is a mama blog all the challenges will be based around your children. Now, I'm not too picky on what you call your children. As far as I'm concerned my cats and dog are my kids too!



The challenge: Take or find a photo that has your little babe enjoying the sun somehow (or not enjoying... I prefer the shade myself! :) ). Have fun!
