- A good perspective on your growing pains. No matter what phase of life we are in with our children I think the themes of this post hold true.
- An anniversary post that made me smile. I married Pat at the ripe old age of 21. Susan's comment about having no idea what they were doing then or now but doing it together made me smile from ear to ear. I often say, "How can I be the parent of four boys?" I still feel young at heart. Pat and I continue to try figure it out life together and are having a blast doing it.
- I found Jan's blog while browsing Gallery Idol. Love her style.
- Are these little onesies not the cutest for twins...Copy and Paste...adorable!
And now...I'll leave you with a card for the current Embellish Challenge. The background stamp is the Hero Arts Envelope Stamp and the flowers and sentiment are from Verve. I struggle with the placement of gems on my cards, but was actually pleased with the way this looked. I love the color combination for this challenge. Not my typical colors, but I like the deep, bold look.

Love the bold colours of the card and the gems a re scattered perfectly! :)
Copy and Paste...too cute, that's a lot better than Pete and Repeat, which is what my twin and I were often referred as. I love your card, I think the gems are absolutely perfect. I find that I have to place gems perfectly straight in a row, but you've shown me that it can be done other ways!
Fabulous!! What an amazing card!! I keep on struggling with the challenge colors :)
