something you are proud of...

Well, I'm a few weeks behind, but here is my first attempt at a blog! I had dinner with the Hippen's the other night and Karalenn showed me this fun idea that Emily had with the 52 cards. Right away I starting thinking about different things that I could do but nothing clicked. I call myself a scrapbooker, but yet...I am years behind and don't get much time to do it! With two kids life can be pretty crazy. Robbie started preschool this week. He is now out of the house 4 hours of the day!! The first day I cried. This was my baby, and my baby really wasn't a baby! He was starting school!!!

This made me really think about both Robbie and Lauren and realize how happy they make me! They are growing up just how I would hope they would grow up. So this sparked an idea....something I am proud of? I am so so so very proud of Robbie and I am so so so very proud of Lauren. There is something very special about having children and I feel proud and blessed to be their mom. They are both very special children and I love them very much. With that said, here are the front and back images of my card!

Oh my goodness! You are a wonderful scrapbooker Melissa. I'm so glad you joined in. Hooray for positive peer pressure! :) I really love your card. Your kids are so cute and our kids love playing with them. I hope Robbie gets better super fast.
