Ghana Love = a great Headband Debacle

Ok, so here's what I was going for... hip, trendy, bohemian...

When I ran into an old friend from High School and she stared in bewilderment at my head this is what I felt like...

In reality this is what I looked like... a little um, eclectic Mama who is trying not so smoothly (or with much success) to pull off a new Fashion Trend (early in the AM) for a good cause...
See, that little headband, well our sweet little sitter and LGC AWAKEN college student, Miss Hillary is making/selling those to help fund her trip to Ghana this summer to work with FEEDING THE ORPHANS an organization near and dear to our hearts.

But seriously it took me like 20 minutes just to decide if I should wear it over or under my bangs. Life altering conversations I was having with myself I tell ya! Of course I ran to Twitter in my moment of weakness and tweeted Ms. Hillary and her designer Ms. Nikki, I just didn't think I could rock it, I explained. To which they replied with numerous tweets of encouragement... as did many of my friends... but Y'all I KNOW my friends... I would bet money on the fact they called each other and said "What the heck is Emily thinking...did you SEE that flower on the side of her head?!?!" OK maybe not... really... who am I kidding, you know they did.

OK enough about me and my headband debacle. But if Bohemian Headbands are your thing... or even if they aren't (because they totally have just the fabic flower clips) consider emailing ghanalove3@yahoo.com and grab yo'self one of these. Help me make them all the RAGE in the C'vEASY.

Happy Valentine's Day! XOXO

Here are my two lovely daughters... all smiles... all lovey dovey... loving each other like good Sisters do!

Here's sweet Stella... The Tiny Diva is ALWAYS ready for a pose.

I could end the story here. Let you think that's what our home looks like... All smiles and hugs. The reality though... somedays your Mom allows your Big Sister to use the camera... she tries to force you to take a picture and you throw an ALL OUT FIT!!!

Hand's fisted...

Loud Screams of frustration...
Just a regular Lovey-Dovey... Valentine's Day at the Fox Den!

***Quick somebody order me a copy of Dr. Dobson's "Strong Willed Child", for real, order it. Like now.
