even after the fit

KENZIE GOT A CHECK PLUS ON HER HOMEWORK for yesterday!

She came home with a packet of homework for tonight and she needs to work on her words for the week a little more. Technically we can't call it spelling, but that is what she is doing now and she has 6 words a week. This week the words are:
a, I, the, see, we, can

So, that is how last night ended up. I am about to start baking for the cakes for the week. See, if I bake them tonight, they will have time to settle and then ice them tomorrow while I am off, then deliver on thursday to Carol and then Friday I can take the other one to work with me.

Maddie has been a good kiddo today even though she stayed up past midnight last night. Kenzie just got home from school and is playing a letter recognition game on the little computer she got from Carol for her birthday 2 years ago. It has only learning games that have to do with letters and numbers. The girls fight over it all the time. Ryan is hanging out. And that is that.

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.

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.
