I did these pages for challenges at Ginger Scraps, they is done with a brand new release called Enchanted Forest by Miss Erin. The one at top is a photo editing challenge and I combined several photos. The other two are an Inspiration challenge and it was "SMELL" I knew I wanted to do my herbs.
Yesterday was better than Monday at work, We are really having trouble with one of the kids biting, though! My assistant had him bite 3 kids Monday afternoon! The new child is so behind the others, the art project we did today was proof for sure. I might as well be talking to the table as he does not seem to listen or understand what we ask him. I pray he will do better quickly! He did not take a nap either and that is Not good!

My youngest sister called and asked would I let her have a yard sale at my house so we are doing it Saturday. I got more stuff from the garage and need to get it ready. I like getting rid of this Junk!

I am so amazed at how smart children are! Working with toddlers makes me more aware, I guess, yesterday one of my parents dropped her child off and told each of the kids good bye calling their names. Ryan said "Goodbye, Mommy" and Katie said "That's not Your Mommy!" I told them that was Caleb's mommy, Miss Samantha and said each of the Mommy's names. When I told her her Mommy was Miss Pam she said "No, it's just Mommy"
After taking our nap Charli saw that Yogabbagabba was on and she had on these PJ's. She looked down and saw Foofa and grabbed her shirt, I said Yes, that's Foofa and she smiled. A few minutes later I asked her where was Foofa and she patted her shirt. That really made me happy that at 1 year old she could connect her shirt to the TV program! I showed Trey when he came in that she had picked that up. She also knows that I am Meme and has called me a couple of times and when I ask "who's Meme's girl?" she smiles and pats herself.

OH, I realized I didn't share this week's scripture yet, Col. 3:2 Set your affections on things above, and not on things of this earth.

This is the extent of the 'snow' we got today, it was gone by lunch
The is the dessert from our work meeting, the head is a mini cupcake. Some of them had hats made of a mini oreo on top of a regular oreo, those were cute, too!
One of my toddlers fell yesterday afternoon and gashed her head. She had to go to express care and have it glued. Miss Amanda is my assistant who was working, she said she had trouble sleeping it upset her so much. Kamryn does love to climb, she was climbing our little slide but had it too close to the heater. She was fine today, just liked to 'show it off'. Miss Emma got Teacher of the Year, she is a wonderful older lady who has the infants, she was a great choice!

Blue's Clues

I really love my job! On I started this year off with a theme party on Fridays. Yesterday was Blue's Clues, we also had Teddy Bear day and a Block Party. We do fun things centering around the them, here they are writing in their handy Dandy Notebooks. Caleb was dressed like Steve and the girls and I wore blue. Ryan and Katie didn't come and I missed them! We also took Blue's for a walk and visited the "Grandma's and Grandpa's" which is what we call the seniors, and went to see the babies. I look at these kids and know where Charli will be next year, three of these turned 2 last month and I so enjoy listening to them talk and watching them play! Caleb was in a 'yappy' mood and had a wonderful time. When Gina was small she was late in talking but when she did she wouldn't stop so when she was talking faster than I could listen I would call her "Yappy".
If I ever do a cartoon style kid's book that will be my main character!
I saw the lady that kept Gina when she was an infant in Wal-Mart the other day. I had been hoping that I would so that I could show her Charli's picture, she has cancer and really looks bad, Lisa and Donna were with her and it was good to see them.
Well I am up because I needed a sinus pill and since I am going to be working on the church book today I thought I would get this done. I can breath now and my cough is stopped. I can her Les from here, her must have a stuffy nose, too, I think I will go roll him over and go back to bed for awhile!
