Memo Board

This was a project I did a few months ago:
Photobucket
Please excuse the lack of organization.

It was a quick and easy one: spray paint frame, hot glue twine on the back, fold material around cardboard matte, and shove into frame. Mom was getting rid of the frame and the material was leftover from the curtains. Cheap...the best kind!

Happy Birthday, Arilynn

Wow, time flies when you're having fun! 

I'm trying so hard to enjoy our moments together. Sometimes I wish I could freeze her in time...she is so much fun. She still has an innocence about her that I wish would stay forever, her imagination is delightful, her excitement is contagious, memory is unforgettable, and her vocabulary is hilarious!! When I say she is full of energy, I mean she overflows most days. She loves her Mommy and Daddy (being a big Daddy's girl) and is very protective of her little brother. She also loves Jesus with as much knowledge as a 4 yr old can understand. She still likes to give hugs and kisses and snuggle at night. She loves books!!!, music, playing school, making cards with Mommy, and "helping" Daddy.

Some of my favorite things she says:
"Mommy, do you know Jesus loves us?"
"Let's go to Max Lucado's (Cato's/TJMaxx)."
"You're my best friend!"
"I wanna eat at Old McDonald's. (McD's)

I wish I did better at keeping track of the things she says. Maybe I'll get a journal and keep it out to write them down. She is always making us smile.

Birthday Request: Perfume
