Seeing Pet Angels

I could only imagine the beautiful ocean scenery that Neve and company witness as they approach the far west coast of Spain... the beaches of Finisterra.

I'm sure the sunrise was as beautiful this morning as they approached the final destination to scatter ashes of our beloved critters. The girls helped illustrate the scenery on our Camino Wall for Neve....

A and B took pride in drawing Spinnaker on top, then Q and Alma, big ole Buoy with his Rock Star eyeliner, and finally sweet blind Harbor at the bottom. I'm sure they are just panting and grinning ear to ear watching Mom gaze in awe out at the crashing waves and and take in the beautiful colors of the horizon. Can you hear them barking in the wind?

We miss you all!!!! Thanks Mom for taking us along on your journey!


update:

I was informed that the final resting spot was in Muxia. Neve stated it was raining and as she scattered our beloved animals across the waves, the clouds broke and out shined a rainbow..... Wow!

Have to love Panera Bread...

I just sliced half of the Panera's focaccia bread and made homemade pepperoni pizzas...
Yummmm yummmm

Another Tooth Fairy Sighting?

My eldest girl, B, came up to me last night and showed me one of her front baby teeth that fell out. It's our tradition that the tooth fairy pillow is the beacon for the Tooth Fairy to come. We have used it for all our children and they are so very familiar in what to expect....

Once the pillow is out, the child in 'tooth mourning' leaves precious hand written notes to the Tooth Fairy with wishes for specific candy that all the siblings can share. One standard sweet that is always on the list is Haribo Golden Gummi Bears. This has been Neve's favorite so I'm sure a little bias was planted early on... :-)

They usually get a few treats in lieu of money, mostly because of the fun morning reactions and toothless smiles that brighten the room amongst the innocent interactions and sibling conversations. Sometimes the Tooth Fairy brings a special something that one of the children has so previously longed for. But I suspect tonight it will be simple pleasures for all to enjoy...
