Spring Break is over!!

Spring Break is officially over & that makes me sad. I'm used to having Ashlyn around the house with me, even if she's in another room, doing her thing. Yes, Camryn is here to keep me busy, but after 4-years of just Ashlyn & me, I'm still getting used to her being in school.

We didn't do too much during her break, but we did go to the beach on Saturday & had a great time. She enjoys staying at home & playing inside or out....what a great kid!!

And, as I think about what a great kid she is, I've come to one of those "open mouth & insert foot" moments, which happens for me quite a bit. Have you ever had one of those moments? Ya know, where you say something you wish you hadn't? That was me today, but it wasn't really what I said, but how I reacted to something she did, or rather, didn't do. My feelings got hurt & I expressed that in front of her. For pete's sake....she's only 6!! Her mindset is definitely not my mindset & she had no clue....yet, I felt slighted. She got terribly upset & cried her little eyes out. Upset, because in her mind, she upset me & that's something she doesn't ever want to do. She's got a heart of gold guys..........a friggin' heart of gold and in a flash of self-pity I made her think it was tarnished. How pathetic am I? I'll always remember this moment.....mainly because I never should have let it happen & because I'll always wonder if she'll remember. Gosh I hope she doesn't!!

So, did I scrap over Spring Break? Nope. Nothing...nada!! I do have a great challenge going on at ScrapFabulous, so I hope you will check it out, participate & upload something for me to see. I'm offering a RAK to a random drawing winner, so maybe that can entice you!!

Here's hoping you have a great week!
