the big 2-7!


Well, yesterday I turned another year wiser. LOL My husband had a little surprise birthday party for me after church Sunday. It was so sweet of him. I don't tell him often enough, but I really appreciate his thoughtfulness. Bryan always tries to make my birthdays extra special. He also gave me sewing and smocking lessons (which I started last week). I have always wanted to learn to sew. Having Ella Claire has motivated me to get busy with this item on my bucket list. He and my parents made my birthday even more special by giving me my own sewing machine. Thanks to our families for all my sewing supplies also.

I made Ella Claire a corduroy jumper on Monday night. I hope she'll be able to wear it this fall. I'm thinking she'll need some cute little tights and a matching long sleeve t-shirt.

Hope everyone is having a wonderful "hump day."

To my sweet sweet (& so funny) B-
My #1 job is in my arms asleep right now because you had to wake her up so you could see her before you left for work. :)

And her name is Ella Claire......just like Laura Kate, Laura Beth, Mary Jane, John Paul....I could go on and on. Ella Claire and I are going to work on some double names to call daddy today. :)

Why are you reading the blog...when you have dear little ones in your care? Get to teaching algebra or history! :)
