I can't believe it's been a week since I have posted! Things have been crazy busy around here!! I hate to admit it, but I am so looking forward to the back-to-school routine and keeping my 19 month old son busy with playschool, gym time & swimming lessons! My daughter will be attending Grade 1 this year, with that brings the start of full-days at school. That is going to take a bit of adjusting, I will miss her so! But I do have my son to keep me busy, and keep me busy he will!! I have Ella in swimming lessons as well as Art class - which she just
loves!! The teacher is fabulous and Ella is briming with pride with each completed project; and so are we! :-)
I have also been busy creating Christmas presents for my sisters!! I know, I know...Christmas you say?!? I've entered a whole new world of "art" and with it comes a bit of a learning curve, so I wanted to give myself plenty of time (
just incase it didn't work out! lol!). I can't share quite yet though, as I wouldn't want to give it away!! It's so fun and I think I've found another addicting (
& expensive - shhh don't tell my husband) hobby and can't wait to share it with you!! ;-)
Ok, now that is out of the way here is my inspiration for this week.
