The picture wasn’t taken today…it was taken at Christmas…but my Dad was here for Burke and Maggie’s birthday over the weekend, so I grabbed a whole bunch of pictures off of his camera. And this picture of Logan TOTALLY makes my Monday 🙂

Names
For a long time, if you’d ask Logan what his name was, he’d point to himself and say “ME!!” And while, technically…that’s not wrong…it totally made my day when he figured out that his name is, in fact, Logan. (Which, when I stop to think about it, he always knew…because he’d turn and say “what?” when you’d call his name. Curious.)
(17 seconds)
The thing saying his name to him is his Leapfrog Tag Jr…and I’m not sure why he’s got his finger in his mouth the whole time…
(And a picture to match the video)
"Hi there, Logan!"
Tails
Maggie requested piggie tails today!! She normally doesn’t want me to do anything with her hair (not that I’m any good at it…), or we just run out of time for anything more than a headband after it’s been brushed. But today – when we actually had time – she asked for pig tails 🙂
Piggie Tails
Logan’s name and Maggie’s request totally Make My Monday!

…a Picasso or a Garfunkel…
Or perhaps some more of Burke’s 🙂
These are from Burke’s Art class:
Ladybug with no Spots
Skate
Horse
The fact that their teacher doesn’t limit them and introduces them to still life and everything else under the sun Makes My Monday 🙂

Burke and Maggie got Logan a snow tube for Christmas 🙂 Mike is currently out at the park with them…I got a few shots in before they left.
"The Blizzard"
"I'm ready!"
(Yes, he has two different mittens on here…we’re still looking for the other brown one. Oops!)
"We're ready!"
The fact that Burke and Maggie got Logan a gift (and are willing to actually share it with him 😉 ) Makes My Monday.

There was a children’s pageant at our church yesterday. Since Maggie is the only one who will go to Sunday school – she was the only one in it! While Mike was at work, I took all 3 kids with me. Thank goodness I sat beside VP so I could sneak up and see that Maggie was okay in the front while leaving the boys with her. (She also took the following picture on my phone 🙂 Thanks VP!!) We didn’t make it through the whole thing, but we did get to see Maggie’s part.

Before the pageant, we hit Target and purchased a much-asked-for-after-Saturday-night Nutcracker. Maggie was dancing around with it this morning 🙂
Dancing with the Nutcracker
And lastly, Maggie was a big girl today and got her hair washed before getting it cut…except that she couldn’t stop giggling because it ticked. Which totally cracked me and Ms. Hairdresser up.
It Tickles!!
Who knew I’d be talking about Maggie for all of those? 😉 All three, totally Make My Monday.

Daddy set up a cool train track for the kids to play with. 🙂
The fact that Daddy has time (and patience) to put together such a cool track, and seeing the pure joy on the kids’ faces Makes My Monday!

When I logged into my Fishful Thinking Ambassador’s portal this morning, I saw two things that made me smile.
The first was my name on the list of winners for the week. (Who can’t use an extra $50 around the holidays??)
(Please excuse the black-outs…personal information that’s not mine to share.)
And second was a Top Idea mark for my post on Saturday!
Not only does receiving accolades Make My Monday, but being a part of such a wonderful community does as well (probably even more so…)
