Day four

There is a wee girl 

who won't grow up at all. 

Did your angel bear her gently 

because she was so small? 

I wondered that you bothered, 

it's such a long long way, 

from Heaven to a parent's heart 

and then not let her stay. 

Forgive the tears and pleading 

and bitterness we've shown, 

we really did not understand 

that she was just a loan. 

We forgot in all the sweetness 

and joy from day to day, 

somehow we never really thought 

she'd have so short a stay.

Day 20

Day 20

I made a music themed ornament.

I started with my plastic ornament. I cut up some scrap paper I had that was music themed.

I covered the ornament with the pieces of paper.

After letting it dry I put a layer of polyurethane on it to seal it. 

.

After it was dry I used some brown paint to give it an antique look. 

And for the final step I covered it with silver glitter paint to give it a little sparkle.

I cant believe its only 5 days until Christmas. I still have to do Christmas Shopping.

Rosie is showing a significant amount of hearing loss in one of her ears. For now they are just going to monitor it in speech therapy and see what happens. 

The story of being a preemie is "we will wait and see" so I guess we will wait and see.

Thinking

I'm thinking I'm:

Glad there is only 2 more weeks of school

Worried about my Mom

not glad winter is soon going to be here

almost ready for my Etsy store to open

going to have to start taking more pictures for I-stock photo

going to have to start blogging twice a day

way overdue for a Dr, Dentist and eye Dr visit (Like 20 years overdue)

going to be glad when the next 2 weeks are over

glad that's its fall

Getting caught up

Without my camera I could not take the pictures that I do. I love my camera, I take it everywhere with me. One of the things I have to carry all my camera equipment is my awesome backpack made by 

cannon I got off of amazon. I love this case I have never had any problems at all with it.

Today I am getting ready to do name pictures. To do these I use a mirror with sand on it.

I have a poster in the background of an ocean scene and I make an new scene for every picture. Which you can imagine takes time. Each scene contains a name and random selected items such as shells, beads, small animals, fairies and similar items. 

This is my craft room which is undergoing a remodel this week. So I can have all my stuff together. I love to do so many crafts and they have been pretty much always all over the house in different areas so Im trying to get it all in the same room. 

Some of the things I love to do are scrap booking, making things with polymer clay, taking pictures of course, collecting stamps, collecting lots of different things like;Angels, ducks, dragonflies, butterflies, roses, boxes, coins, currency, and postcards. I am also the family history buff and have enjoyed finding out about my Mormon ancestors that came over on the Mormon trail and my 5th great grandfather who had 4 wives (at the same time).   So I have all the family genealogy information. 

I love technological gadgets and have all the latest. 

My kindle came first, I only use it to read books on.

 Then I got an I-pad 2

I love them both!

I also have 

which I would like to use more than I do, which has been never so far...

But I'm going to use it more I promise! And I will share those adventures with you.

So now I'm off to start on some names, I will post them later, and I am posting them in the order they came in. Due to a busy life I have been behind on the names. I am sorry and I will get them done.

Thanks for your time

have a nice day

~hugs~
