I have so many drafts in my folder right now it’s sad. Blogging has definitely taken a back seat, and I’m bummed about it pretty much every night as I fall exhausted into bed around 11 pm without a single extra moment to spare. So I’ve decided to, as they say, “make” time for blogging from here on out (and no, I don’t mean hitting “share” on instagram)…let’s see how long I can keep this up. Here’s a real (albeit short) post I’ve been meaning to publish for quite some time.
This was a while ago, but Knox has become very taken with classic fairy tales within the last several months. The Three Little Pigs & The Three Bears are probably the top two on his list, and, one day we decided to set the stage for some wonderful imaginative play and this is what happened.

HOURS , and I do mean hours, of fun were had with this idea. There was also pine straw strewn about my house for weeks, but, hey, it was worth it. A big bad wolf blowing down houses just never gets old.
