Dream Catcher DIY


I have few blogs I fallow of other mamas that have amazing business and sometimes I Do have to admit that i spend so much time just completely immerse in this or that . I always love falling on a new one that just captivate me. In case you haven't heard of lunevintage, she Amazing. Jill just create this DIY for a dream catcher wich was amazingly perfect timing.
My mom is leaving, wich I know has been all over everywhere, but shes my best friend and my oldest boy Sasha is extremely close to her, since knowing she is leaving he has been acting out in crying more or having night mares, my heart is broken thinking about how much he is going to miss her....


But going back to the source, he has been asking asking for a dream catcher, says mommy it's going to make me feel better. How perfect did this DIY? Especially she's leaving in a day, so I thought we will make one this weeken and he can maybe release some of his sadness in it....and well some on mine also. can't wait to make it and add little treasures in it.
Dream catcher

I am new at adding links, I really hope it works,
If not please go visits her lovely blog and store at lunevintage.blogspot.com

I will post pictures when we make it :)

I didn't blog of mention my little monkey on her special day! I feel horrible, just because I usually mention my treasures on their birthday!
I will make it quick, but she deserves the world!
We ended up having to cancel her big party an just having a small family one, but she was in heaven! Hello kitty cake, and pretty dresses and new shoes!! She's such a Girl and I love it!!!! Might have something to do with the shoe obsession but hey I am a girl too!!! Here are few pictures, we have more on the camera but no computer right now. :(









Je t'aime Melodie....just the way you are! " I have a live for the song just the way you are by lady Gaga...makes me think of when I put her hair up and put on her lipstick ( she loves it!) and I tell her she's perfect just the way she is!!! So when I heard this song I feel in love! Because I love Both my babies exactly for the way they are!
Ok enough sappy maman!
