Oh dear...here come the tears!


I had to take a break. A break from designing Emery's birthday invitation. Her SEVENTH invitation. I still remember designing the little ladybug invitation for her FIRST birthday.

Who would have known that typing out "7th" in photoshop would send me into a serious tearfest. It's Just Too Fast!!!

Okay, in need some chocolate now!

Oh' Shannon,
save those tears for the day that you have to say she is a 5th grader.
Seriously... Where the heck does the time go?
I am feeling the same range of emotions, as my big girl starts 5th grade, adn my BABY starts Kinder. Thinking of you, and so glad that you cherish every moment, and scrap to save the memories! Thinking of you!

I'll bring over chocolate next week for sure!

Emery is beautiful - and just think of the amazing 7 years she has had!

Cheering, swimming, dancing, drawing, posing, reading, writing, biking, running, laughing,discovering, jumping, learning, and being loved by her wonderful family!

Her next 7 are going to be even better - I just know it!
