About Me

My photo
I am a 27 year old married mother of a beautiful, curly headed toddler named Easton and precious (and precocious) puppy named Ritzy. I have 3 blogs. The first blog is our family blog. Enjoy being nosey. Ha! The second blog is for the journey we have embarked on for our puppy. At almost 5 years old, our sweet Ritzy was diagnosed with calcium oxalate bladder stones. He had surgery to remove the stones. This blog is to document (and help others) our journey in saving Ritzy so he gets the long and healthy life he deserves. The third blog is for my "professional" life. It references my lovely Etsy store and all of the loveliness that inspires me on the wonderful world of Etsy

Creating a Gentleman

It has always been important to Ryan and I to teach EASTON to be a gentleman. It is our belief that you need to start those teaches right off the bat, it is never too early to start.

So yesterday, March 13th, we took Easton to The Civic Theater to see his first play, Jemima Puddle Duck. I was so proud of Ryan, it was all his idea, he heard about the play and was so excited for us to take Easton.

We got all dressed up Saturday morning, got Easton in his black courdory suit jacket and made out way to the Theater. The play was fantastic. Easton enjoyed it so much. He giggled and smiled and clapped the whole time. It was lovely, the stage was designed so that some of the audience could actually sit ON the stage and be in the thick of things, which was very cool, we ended up on the stage!!!!

Afterwards Easton enjoyed playing with some of the cast, especially the little 13 year old boy who played Pudgy, the chubby Foxhound. :-)

After the play, Ryan and I took Easton to The Green Well for lunch.

Fun was had by all, it was one of those days we'll never forget. Very special.

A friend of mine introduced me to the "Life List". She has been keeping a list for years of things she wants to do, learn, accomplish. One of the numbers on her "Life List" is "Doing grand gestures for my children". That touched me so much and inspired me deeply. I am beginning my own "Life List" and am including "Doing grand gestures for my children" and I think this day would definitely count as a grand gesture, it was so special....

I loved reading this. It brings back memories of my days on the Civic stage! What a great experience for him. And Nick and I were just discussing our lists last night as well! I think it's because we're approaching 30 :p
