On the 7th day (hump day) I was going to do a give away - but I forgot. Last night I was doing my blog at home and didn't have the image of my give away, so today we will have a give away.
Anyone commenting on my blog will be in a random drawing to win this:
Crazy 8 Charm Pack
(Forty-five 5" squares)
And....
This PatternToday's featured designer is: Sherri from This 'N' That.
I wonder what project she has in store for us?
Today's topic: A kid story, either about your kids if you have any or other kids, even yourself.
I will title this blog Abby's A-ha Moment.
Abby, our second child required very little sleep. Trust me the child never slept.
One Christmas Eve, Bruce and I were nodding off in the family room, while waiting for Abby to go to sleep so we could play Santa. After what seemed like forever, I tip-toed upstairs to see if all were sleeping. Anthony, of course, had been sleeping for hours. Next room, Abby's, yes she is finally asleep. I tip-toed down stairs to give Bruce the go ahead.
As he was carrying the presents from the garage to the house he happened to look up, only to see our Dear Abby standing at her bedroom window.
My question to Bruce - What did you do? His answer - I waved.
I'm not sure how many years Abby had been watching us carry the presents in the house, but I'm pretty sure this was not the first time.
It reminds me of this Norman Rockwell picture.
Norman Rockwell is one of my favorites.
This is another one of my favorites.
Nobody could paint an expression like NR.
Hands and feet are very difficult for me to draw.
Not for Norman Rockwell - just look at those toes!
