CPS 60

Here's my take on the CPS 60. I like this sketch............so many possibilities really. As you can see, I turned mine, but it didn't start out this way. The card actually started vertical.....not sure what happened. It also took me 2 days to finish this. It has sat on my desk since Monday without a sentiment. I couldn't figure out what I wanted it to say or where & how to put it. Anyway, I decided on this & like it well enough.

In other news, Stanford 9 testing started today. For those of you that don't live in the South.............be thankful!! Our school systems are definitely not the best & unfortunately, our teachers are geared to teach around these tests instead of teaching the kids the way they learned in college. So, my 2nd grader started her first of 6 days of 2 1/2 hours testing each day. Yup, 2 1/2 hours, uninterrupted, for 3 days this week & then 3 more next week. And if you don't think a 2nd grader doesn't stress about these tests? Think again..................it's drilled in their heads ALL year long, from day 1 til they are so nervous as to whether or not they are going to do good. I think my girl deserves a Starbucks today:) Okay, well maybe not a caffeinated Starbucks, but something delish anyway!!!

Otherwise, not much else going on. I have LOTS of things to get accomplished for the upcoming dance recital end of May. It'll be here before I know it & then I can breathe. I'm looking forward to summer already, but then again, that brings Summer classes *sigh*

Have a great Tuesday!!
