I have so many projects I am currently working on for my local scrapbook store. Next week I will be teaching a Fall Leaf Book entitled Fall's a Hoot. It is a cute little book just right for those pictures of the kids playing in the fall leaves. I know I have tons of those type pictures so I should be set.

Another project I am working on is a pirate mini book. Pirates have become so popular these days and both of my boys love playing pirate so I couldn't resist turning the skeleton book into a pirate.
It is not quite finished but I am very happy with how it has turned out thus far. I will share more once it is complete.

Changes, Changes, Changes!!

Last week I sent my oldest child Alex age 5 to his first day of Kindergarden. I am sure as with all mommy's that was a difficult day for me. Although he had attended K-4 last year this years seemed more real. I know he will be attending school for the next 12 years and then college and it is almost like I don't have my baby anymore.

What made it all better was at the end of his school day while I was waiting to pick him up from school he cam running to me arms wide open so excited to see me again. The fact that he started school on my birthday did not help either but it was a good day.

This week my youngest son started K-3. How empty my house is feeling these days. Although he only goes a couple of days each week I find that I can't wait to pick him up. I am sure I will fill my time with crafting and things that I seem to never be able to get to on an average day but there is still that empty feeling of missing my guys.
