My first born is already in Primary 2! Wow it still feels unreal that he has grown up so much. This year he is so much more relaxed and can't wait to see his friends at school each day.

Yap I made a New Year resolution this year. A very rare thing I might add but I feel good writing it down. It's a reminder for me to allocate me time for myself. Somedays things just get out of hand but taking those minutes away from it all is something that I need to do. A happy mother will do the kids good as it will mean less shouting and hopefully less punishments in the long run.

How do you keep yourself sane ?

It's my turn to host the Use Your Stash Challenge over at Groovie Cafe. All that is needed is to include 3 stamp images, 2 ribbons and 1 flower in your layout.

Here's my take which I'm not very pleased with. Just seems a little messy. Looks like the scrapping mojo has gone missing for awhile.

Here's my take of Ed's Sketch for the month of Jan. Hop over to take a look at takes by the talented design team and don't forget have a try. Remember to include a sentiment stamp in your layout.


Here is the little one caught in the act - going through the stamp drawer at the local scrapbook store.

All papers are from Sassafras Lass.






I think the little duck is so cute.

So sorry for the long silence, we have been away from a much needed break. Lots of sunshine and sea breeze later, I feel so much more relax and sane.
