Not so quiet day

Hey! Since Kenzie and Maddie are sick, Kenzie of course was still contagious today and the teacher asked me to keep her home for the rest of the week since it is a short week anyway, so she stayed home and boy did I know it! She hates staying home from school. I hated doing it to her, but if she is sick, she is sick. So anyway, she stayed home and fought with her sister all day. Not my favorite day. I did re read the blog from yesterday and forgot to add something. My mom is all concerned about Maddie's legs because she walks a little pigeon toed sometimes. I told this to Dr. Morgan, she said "is she tripping over her feet" I replied "no" she then counter replied with "well then don't worry about her" and "it is normal for some kids to do that at her age" so now with that settled, I hope that will be the end of the ongoing fight over her legs. I took the kids outside again today!!! Maddie and I went to the neighbor's house and she was in heaven! ON THE TRAMPOLINE! It is no wonder we call her a jumping bean! She loves to jump. Maybe she will be an olympic jumper when she gets older. :-) Ryan worked and I did school work today. And now tonight I don't really have any plans for any of us. Maybe make some calls to the out of staters that I haven't been able to get ahold of for a while (hint hint amanda) LOL! Oh by the way, Mom called me today and she also has strep and pink eye! So I had a friend of mine take care of her. She is an ARNP, so she takes care of us when we need scripts! Anyway, enough from the sick family!

The importance of connections

 Many times, we don't take the opportunity in life to think about connections. Much like the way legos connect to erect the building or vehicle you are trying to create, without connecting pieces, our lives would fall apart. It's not often that we take time to reflect on those connections in meaningful ways. If I am honest, when we moved from Indiana back to Florida, we didn't appreciate the connections we had and so as I look back I wonder what life would have been like if we'd not only appreciated those connections, but supported them in meaningful ways.  Since moving to Greenville, not only have we made connections, but we've made it a part of life to connect with those people we've met that have become more like family than friends. We took the time to find a church that really believes in connecting with their people and not in a way that makes the patrons of the church feel like they are just a player in the game of chess and that player's job is to be

Workout #27

So, here's the challenge. And above, you can see my entry. Kenzie had done crosswords or circle a words (I can't remember) with Gigi and I snapped a pic of her doing it. I absolutely love the design of the sketch we were supposed to use for this lo. It allows for a simple, yet stunning layout. It allows room for journaling as you can see that I added as well as plenty of negative space! And the breakdown goes like this, picture was taken from my collection, background paper was from k and company the best of k and company pad, the circles were literally just picked out of my scrap box. I didn't even look at the papers, i just did a random pick. the lettering was taken from an old sheet of alphas i had and I think they worked out great!!! Simple yet Stunning! Thank you Scrap Fit for the challenge.
