This year he set a goal for himself that he wants to get into advanced placement math and thankfully we live in a school district that has the resources to provide him with extra work to reach this goal. In addition to challenging himself at school, he's trying so many other new things: runner's club, student council and a babysitting course (he realizes he can make money babysitting :)!) I am so proud of all that he is trying both academically and socially and I want him to know "Nothing is Impossible". Most of all I'm proud that he is such a kind, hard working , loving boy. So this little note will be tucked in his backpack this week letting him know just how I feel. My beautiful boy.

Great card Lynn. Wishing Jonathan all the best...he seems to have an awesome and supportive mom which is the foundation to a successful young man! Great job mom! :)
Great post, how wonderfully proud you should be! Great card too, the touch of burlap is the perfect touch.
I love this post, Lynn! You wrote so beautifully, the pride and love you feel for your son. I know this card will make him feel proud of himself too. Love it!
Loving your misting and burlap and am so impressed with how Jonathon is so fearless and excited to try new things. :)
And thank you so so much for my blog candy and extra goodies! Can't wait to dig into it all! Have a wonderful weekend!
I loved reading this post about Jonathon. I love this sweet card that you made for him from the heart. I know he'll love it too.
I know first hand what a sweet boy he is :) I love the way you honour each of your boys here and there on your blog and with your cards :) How precious :) I love the way he challenges himself already. We are learning about the virtue of excellence this week at school and this month schoolwide...I think Jonathon already practices this and then some!! You must be sooo proud :) LOVE his card and the way you are working magic with those spray mists :) Fun little burlap!! Worth the Archivers trip ;) Hope you had a fabulous time with the ladies last night...look forward to hearing about it...safe travels home :) TGIF!!!
Fifth grade is definitely a big transition year. My oldest is a fifth grader this year. The first day of school it was funny to see him in the front of the bus-now the youngest, versus being a big fourth grader sitting in the back of the bus last year! Thankfully, Will has adjusted well to the big change and it sounds like your Jonathan is doing the same!
I just love that little strip of burlap and buttons on your card, Lynn! Have a great weekend, girl! :)
This is stunning!! I love your misting and the swatch of burlap! The sentiment is gorgeous!! Fabby project!
Wonderful card. Love the misting and the burlap. - Enjoyed hearing about your son too. He sounds like he's growing into young adulthood just fine.
Sensational! Love the bit of burlap! :)
This is beautiful, Lynn! I had seen a couple of takes on these colors and yours definitely stands out!! I love the elements that you incorporated into the design! Just fabulous!
This is GREAT, love it!!!
