Anyway, while we were there, little E who was around 16 months old, decided that she wanted to get even closer to the animals. Before I knew it, she was climbing over the barriers. When I told her to get down this instant, she looked at me and laughed. That was when I knew in my mother heart that she would be trouble. And I was right. The girl is always getting into some type of predicament. Sometimes, I have to turn my head while in the throes of discipline because my giggles need to escape.
So I did this page in memory of that first indication of trouble-up-ahead.
My journaling.
Loads of cutwork here. All those flowers were cut out and placed.
Materials: Bazzil cardstock, Making Memories paint, Sharpie pen and everything else is My Little Shoebox
We just got back from the Splash Park. The kids had a wonderful time playing with friends while I chatted with one of my good friends. Fun was had by all, except Q who seems a bit out-of-sorts today. Perhaps he's teething again? Poor dear.
Despite that, I'm feeling especially good because I finally got a walk in this morning. I've been wanting to start exercising again after a major hiatus. (I won't go into specifics, too shameful for public knowledge.) Unfortunately, however, Q has been a major early-bird-riser this week and has prevented me from being able to leave the house (he isn't a very happy stroller boy.) It felt so good to be using my muscles again and to be outside in the early morning quiet. I really love that time of day. When the world is still waking up and everything is fresh and new. It is a wonderful time for me to gather my thoughts and gear up for the activity of the day. I can't wait for tomorrow. Thinking sleeping baby thoughts...
