Hi Everyone,
This week has been a week for a big decision. Tuesday evening my husband and I discussed whether I should resign from my job at the child development center. Wednesday I went to work with my two resignation letters in hand and turned them in. April 11, 2012 is my last day. It is kind of bitter sweet. I will miss the kids, but it will be so sweet and wonderful to be at home doing the things the Lord would have me to do. I do not regret the decision my husband and I made. I feel free and releaved.
I am looking forward to being able to cook for the two wonderful men in my life, wake up to the birds singing and most important of all serve the Lord.
Got to run.
Hugs,
Janet

Home From Work!
Hi Everyone,
It is so good to be home from work. I love working with kids, but I love being at home. As Dorothy said long, long ago "There's no place like home."
Today a fellow co-worker and I began planning our summer camp program. We have come up with some good ideas that I know the kids will love. This co-worker is so sweet and I really enjoy working with her.
I know this is short, but I got to run.
Hugs,
Janet

Another Day Done!
Another day is filled with activity. Cleaning, cooking,b baking and crafting. I was able to work on my altered clipboard for the swap I am participating in on Life on the Scrap Beach. It has been a challenge and I have truly enjoyed it. The only thing left to do on it is add son ribbon to the clip part of the board.
Tomorrow I will be working on my lesson plans for next week at preschool. Last full week of essons before Easter. I can't wait for Easter break, I am so ready to be at home with my guys. I love spending time with them. I will hopefully get some crafting done as well and also hopefully do a video or two.
My daughter tiffany just shared an idea with my for a craft and I am going to try it out. I will have to go to the thrift store and get an old large piece puzzle. I also want to work on some tea cup pin cushions.
I am trying to decide whether or not to open an etsy store. That is still just a thought. I don't want to rush into anything unless I am absolutely sure.
Got to run.
Hugs,
Janet

Tuesday Morning
Hi Everyone,
It is tuesday morning and the weather today is suppose to be beautiful. Yesterday's weather was beautiful in the afternoon. It was a good day for me. Last night I started to put aside those things I will need to put together my Vintage Garden Clipboard for the challenge swap I am participating in on Life on the Scrap Beach. My favorite is shabby chic and vintage or victorian.
Well I got to run.
Hugs,
Janet

Altered Clipboards
Hi Everyone,
A few months agao I decided to do some altered clipboards. I thought they would make great photo displays. I can't think of any two people I want to show more, my granddaughters Kristina and Abigail. Using plain clipboards is like having a blank canvas to work with. Just use your imagination and you can have personalized display boards to show off your photos.
On these clipboards I used homemade flowers, homemade stick pins, pieces of lace, old jewelry, buttons and scrapbook paper. I used the color of the girls outfits to determine the color theme.
I hope you enjoy them. I have just joined a swap challenge on Life on the Scrap Beach and the challenge is doing an altered clipboard. The theme is The Vintage Garden. I can't wait to get started.
A project I am working on now is a basket exchange at work. I will post pictures when it is completed.
Got to run. Have a great day.
Hugs,
Janet (Nana)

Too Long Gone!
Hi Everyone,
It has been too long since I have been on my blog.My schedule has been so crazy, with work and taking a CDA class for work. I am almost done with it, but I will still have to go through the testing and then waiting to see if I get the CDA. I really miss blogging and crafting. I have been working on the favors for our upcoming Ladies Conference at church and I could not have done it without the help of a lot of friends. They have been super, thanks Ladies, you are the best.
I did sign up for a swap on Life on the Scrap Beach. It is an altered clipboard. I have made three of them and they are fun to make. Two are mine. I use them as picture frames of my two granddaughters. I will have to take pics of them and put them on my blog and the other one I did was for a friend of her granddaughter. For this swap the theme is The Vintage Garden. I have been going through my stash for stuff I will need and I can't wait to get started.
Well I better go for now. I will be back soon.
Love and Hugs,
Janet (Nana)
