Cactus Monday & Mother's Day

Today Missy has gone for an underwater exploration along with cousin, Ralph. They even came across Marlin and Dory. Missy is enjoying it to the core. She had always dreamed of swimming one day. Finally it's THAT DAY!!!


Know what she was even looking for tresure coz she has heard of it in many a tales...treasure hunt tales:)


Happy Cactus Monday!!!

This is a card my daughter made for me yester' in her art class at school with the help of her art teacher. She even hummed the lines in the back of it..."Mommy I Love You" and gave me a tight hug. It was so very sweet:)

Have a Wonderful Day!

    The cacti actually look natural swimming, amazing! Your daughter did a great job on the heart card, such petty colors and careful stitching.

    There's nothing sweeter than this sort of gift from a child. Hey, I felt this way finding the mother's Day card in my mail today from my 45 yr old son!!! It never gets old.

    What a blast! I love your swimming cactus and Marlin & Dory. How fun. And your daughter's Mother's Day gift is simply stunning. It brings back wonderful memories of stitching paper like that when I was young. Happy belated Mother's Day and thank you so much for visiting me on my blog, so I could find yours! :O)
