I think I've made more Americana collages in my blogging career than any other type of collage. I love me a good RWB look anytime between Memorial Day and Labor Day, but especially for July 4th weekend. I was inspired to make one this week after seeing the most amazing summer sweater possibly of all time on J.Crew's website.
This week is Amalia's last in Kindergarten which is, naturally, turning me into a basket case. She was voted "most changed" when they compared photos from the first day of school to the end of the year. You can only imagine the sob-fest when I found out that fun little fact. And she really has. She looks (and sometimes talks) like a little teenager lately.
Well we certainly had an eventful week. Amalia came down with a fever on Monday night that lasted until last night. The poor thing was so sick and lethargic and shivery and it broke my heart. When she is sick it brings me back to the days when she was a baby/toddler and her getting sick would send me into a spiral into awful anxiety.
Now here's a blog post I never thought I'd be writing when I started Lemon Stripes Lemons & Loafers 13 years ago! But fast forward to today when I have a truck, car, bus, and excavator-loving little dude who hates to wear anything that doesn't have a truck on it, unless it's yellow, that is the only exception.
