Glad I checked behind my nightstand before I bought more hair ties. I found 19 of them! (18 pictured, one in my hair) Now to figure out where the missing socks go... 😄

My daughter put Genevra Kitten’s latest on the book club pile. #kinardlibrary #librarytinycats

Genevra Kitten watched all of the Little Women movies and caught the writing bug. She laid out her manuscript pages across the floor like Jo. #kinardlibrary #librarytinycats

My husband’s grandmother Mame died at the end of January, and she left some beautiful furniture to the family. This weekend my husband was able to pick up her dresser and vanity set and these beautiful lamps. The kids keep sneaking into our room to admire it. It smells like Mame, and they miss her and pray for her when they come in to look. I love seeing their little faces reflected in mirrors that have seen their dad and grandmother and great-grandmother. #childrenofjoy

This little boy loves his calendar! He’s been writing calendars on the whiteboard, too, and he loves to track the date. When he comes to wake us up in the morning, he gives little pieces of context, like how many days left till Saturday, or that it’s two more days till Tuesday. Clocks are also very cool to him, particularly the “sundown countdown clock,” that shows the time of sunrise/set and moonrise/set. I’m so happy with the ways that our boy is blossoming and sharing his loves with us. #childrenofjoy

Today we join Caspar Sheep and Genny Cat for their poetry group. Owl always attends the meetings under protest, but he can’t help but add witticisms as soon as anyone diverges from that hallowed form, the sonnet, which is the only type of poetry he can enjoy without mockery. Genny and Caspar know this and save the Shakespeare book until it’s time for refreshments so that Owl doesn’t talk with food in his mouth. ### The girls adopted the new bookshelf immediately. They’re the caretakers of the little book parties and make sure that all the friends are comfortable. Liggle Bitty has a stash of tiny cat friends from which she produced guests for the poetry reading. #childrenofjoy #kinardlibrary #shelfie #tinybookclub

I made and wrote some little books for the new bookshelf vignette. The videos are me reading them. They’re about two inches square, composed of scrapbook card stock and white paper bound with tiny strips of iridescent duct tape. I’ll show them in their new cubby later. #kinardlibrary #tinybooks

Happy Name Day to our Despina Eleni and all of my Helen friends! #nameday #orthodoxkids #sthelen #childrenofjoy
