I felt horrible this morning when I dropped her off at school. As she was walking into the school, I noticed her pants are about 2 inches too short. I hope hope hope hope no one says anything to her about it. Last week I bought her two new pairs of pants. She has grown 4 inches in the past year. She does her own laundry so I didn't even think to pull the short pair out this week. Oh, she is such a sweetheart. She doesn't ask for new things very often, usually only when she really needs something.
She is becoming quite the preferred babysitter in the neighborhood. She has jobs the next three weekends, plus a new gig that is for every T/Th after school. And a pet-sitting job for two weeks. We may have to get her a cell phone for Christmas.
Love this girl!
On to some projects . . . in the September Hip 2-b Square add-on kit there was a mini-album. It had 8 pages, but I broke it down to make two 4-page albums. The girls each have a mini-album for their elementary school "first day of school" photos. I made these two for Krish and Bird, using the same page ideas for both:
And Bird's:
(Not sure what happened to Bird's 4th and 5th grade pages, but they look like Krish's. They are just a little different with the chipboard pieces).
We have a busy day--piano lessons this afternoon, James & Esme for dinner (thanks, mom, for the pot roast help), and family movie night.
So glad it's Friday :)
What are you thankful for today?
