This and That

(Fall flowers.)

Ahh, this week felt crazy busy as James started kindergarten and our entire family adjusted to the new (and much earlier) schedule.  I think we are really getting the hang of it, and next week, Rhys goes back, too.  Thursday night I felt less frazzled and more like myself, and I’m excited to get back to my writing routine next week.  This weekend, we’re planning to spend time with family and friends, and I hope to catch up on some extra sleep, too.  Here are a few things that caught my eye this week.

A minimal blog about a 37-piece wardrobe.

Gorgeous photographs of a young girl, taken by her mother.

A happy ending for a survivor of the Boston Marathon bombing.

I shared this on Wednesday, but even if you aren’t a parent, it’s a really funny read. And so true!

Life in the car pool hookup line. This is true, too! I think I’ve finally gotten the hang of our line, by the way.

A Texas judge ruled the funding method for our public schools unconstitutional. Now, let’s see some changes.

Is this yours, by any chance?

And a new micro-housing project for Austin’s homeless.

Have a wonderful weekend and a safe Labor Day!
