Mother of the Year Award, Sketch This & Pink Sketches

And the Mother of the Year Award goes to.....................................
Mrs. Dawne Ivey!!!
Come on down Mrs. Ivey...............................
tell us..........
did you ever think forgetting to pick up your child,
on her first day of PreK4,
at the right time
would earn you this award?

Ya..................
we didn't think so!!
Can I get an "AMEN!!"
What an emotional day for me.
I hold back tears this morning,
Only to let them flow freely on the way home, while I blogged
while I did a layout about her first day of PreK
and while I typed the journaling.
Through all of this, I didn't realize I had forgotten the time
Until I got to the parking lot at 11:45 (coyly thinking I was early)
and realized I was 45 minutes LATE!!!
Thank goodness this school has after-school care & she wasn't alone.
And she took it all in stride!!
Such a sweetie & she's already napping!!

So, while I busy being late, I scrapped a few of her pictures from this morning.
I used Sketch This 63.
I love the colors in this dress & knew I wanted something bright.
Using the KI Memories lace papers was perfect.

I also found this new sketch site called Pink Sketches.
Yesterday, I did this layout using Pink Sketch #1.

I guess that's all for now.
I've already exhausted myself & the day is only 1/2 over:)

Oh dear! I wanted to call you all day, but of course today is Thursday and I was busy, busy. Don't worry about being late, she was just fine and I am sure other parents got it mixed up too.

Oh, well, there is first time for everything. You will probably not be late again. Beautiful layouts. How great that you got to capture those photos.

That award could easily be handed to any of us! We can't be everything all the time. We are human! Cut yourself some slack.

When you get a chance, call me. I want to run a fundraising idea by you, but only want to do it if you think it is a worthwhile idea.

Thanks for visiting!!
