it’s been crazy hot here.  like all you can do is stay indoors or in water kind of hot.  but, it’s been fun having friends and family over to enjoy the pool with us.  last week i wasn’t feeling well and my friend ahndea brought me an iced coffe and a necklace, which i noticed matches my flower pot (both pictured above), which was brightened my day.

ok, those s’mores bars are no joke.  like you should make them this weekend and i should make them again too.  here is the  recipe.

and this boy, he kind of melts my heart daily.  he has his own little language which i wish you could hear.   it’s sweet and funny and goo goo magic.  and, i think my heart might just break, if it doesn’t melt away first, if he grows one more inch and speaks any more words, that is, unless they are made up ones, of course.  coming to terms with rocco being our last one is kind of making me melancholy but having another kind of freaks me out more.  raising kids is serious business.  and as each child gets older, you realize how different each one is, and you also realize how differently and uniquely each little soul needs to be parented.  but as for today, i’m going to squeeze and kiss those little cheeks and try to paint that face in my mind forever.  my mom is besides herself because she thinks rocco looks just like i did when i was little.  and, he just happens to call her mom-eee.  honestly, its just kind of a gift to see my mom be able to relieve happy moments from years gone by.  i hope the very same happens for me one day.  so children, if you are reading this.  one you… have a baby that looks just like you when you were a baby. ok?  thanks….love your mom-eee!

and how was your week?  what is melting your heart?  or are you just melting in the heat like me.
