harper is always a gracious hostess when she has a tea party. she is careful to meet all the needs of each of her guests, regardless of how difficult that may be.
oliver jack is slowly becoming more and more refined...and he even left his boogie board a few feet away from the party. this will be his only chance at cotillion so we are putting a lot of pressure on harper to teach him etiquette.
calvary has mastered the art of the tea party since he has been harper's main guest ever since these shindigs begun oh so many years ago.
and some people need more work...finley has clearly not learned that the creamer cup is not meant for guzzling like some sort of parched giant. the work is hard and the laborers few...
the hostess takes a moment to enjoy the fruit of her labor.
and calvary is either really upset about finley's lack of proper tea party etiquette or he is worried that his manhood is somewhat jeopardized by sipping kool-aid from tiny porcelain cups. either way, he is letting his opinion known.
at the end of the day i may not be able to give my children every toy that they have asked for or fulfilled every want. the Lord knows i have wanted to have that ability. but the gift i have given them is the gift of each other. my prayer is that they love each other always and laugh with each other daily. what a blessing it is to have a tea party with people instead of stuffed animals...

How precious! we love tea parties too. I think mine just love pouring and making messes more than actually enjoying the finery of sipping 'tea'. :) Miss you!
