You seem to be building a wonderful life for your family and you.<br /> <br />I just love how you described your home. You make it sound like if I stopped by (sorry if that sounds creepy), you'd have me sit down on the sofa, offer me a cup of hot chocolate and encourage me to curl my feet underneath myself while talking and laughing as the kids ran circles through the house.<br /><br />Homey is not a decorating style but how a home makes you feel relaxed and comfortable.Cindyhttp://naturalconceptions.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8047452303734452315.post-63602908264878474482011-05-03T18:59:26.325-04:002011-05-03T18:59:26.325-04:00Very nice, Crystal!

I am definitely a magazine peruser and blog stalker and sometimes the homes seem so...PERFECT. And I have to admit that I strive (and fail most of the time) for that kind of perfection in my own home. Having 3 kiddos 6, 5 and 2 1/2 (2 of them crazy boys) doesn't bode well for perfection...at least by the magazine's standards. I have gotten a little better in allowing the kids to just be kids but my skin still crawls with juice spills, cracker crumbs and crayon on the walls (and most recently, permanent marker on my white kitchen cabinets - so awesome). I definitely use the sensory theory though - love the smell of baking or my new Scentsy plug-in's and we currently have the windows open and there is a lovely breeze! Have a wonderful night with your family, Crystal! <br /><br />JenJennifer @ A Fine Romancehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08756734100626372212noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8047452303734452315.post-77462882995662250022011-05-03T18:50:28.106-04:002011-05-03T18:50:28.106-04:00~Perfectly Said~ Especially about the times when w...~Perfectly Said~ Especially about the times when we need to put the worship music on & turn everything else off!
