I loved every single second of Spring Break. We had fun up until the last minute…even doing yard work and starting our first garden was fun. It was all about just being together.
The littles really got into St. Patrick’s Day this year, too.
They came into my room with their little pinchers saying, “Momma, you better get on your green unless you want to be pinched.” Note to self: buy green pajamas for next year.
And, they got a real kick out of the green chocolate chip pancakes and green smoothie.
It was a fun day, and I was glad that it came at the end of spring break, after our week of fun. It was just a nice way to top it all off.
Now I sit here this morning missing my boys terribly, I am trying to hold on to what I texted Gabriel last night, as he was struggling with leaving me today. “You are always with me, even when we are not together. You are a part of me.” That is true…but I sure do miss their smiling faces this morning. Yesterday, as I was starting to prepare for today, I made these Peanut Butter Muffins that I had found at American Family via Pinterest. They are low in sugar, have protein, and are a good easy breakfast or snack. It made me feel better to know that the boys would have something homemade for their snack today. I know that they will think of me and smile when they open their snack container. They are always with me…and I am always with them, too.
Ingredients

Hey! I know this is kinda off topic however I’d figured I’d
ask. Would you be interested in trading links or maybe guest writing a blog article or vice-versa?
My blog covers a lot of the same topics as yours and I
believe we could greatly benefit from each
other. If you happen to be interested feel free to shoot me an
email. I look forward to hearing from you! Excellent
blog by the way!
