Happy 2nd Birthday Scott!!!

It was my great-nephew, Scott's, Birthday party today!!!

This is him opening the present I gave him. I gave him a Golden Book of Bible stories and a Thomas the Train play set. Since I have started cardmaking, I have been putting bookplates in the front of books that I give to the kids. I sat down at the craft table today and couldn't get it done. My hands were just shaking so much (medication related) so I just wrote a little note and signed it.

I had a pic of him blowing out the candles but I guess I didn't get it uploaded. Next time I'll double check. Still getting used to Mr. Blogger. Here he is eating his cake!!! Love the chocolatey face.

I couldn't resist putting this one in. It is me with my neices youngest. He is 8 months old. Ya, my hair is shorter and I'm a little (or a lot) older than my blog photo. I''ve been through a lot the last couple of years and it really aged me. I cut my hair last summer because some of it had fallen out (med related again). So I just cut it short and I'm waiting very impatiently for it to grow back. It was almost to my waist when I cut it. I'll have to take a new photo for my blog photo.

When my niece was pregnant with her first child, I thought how that made me sound soooo old. When you hear "great-aunt" you think of a little old lady with her hair up in a bun. When I told her how it was gonna make me feel so old, she said, "No, you're going to be a GREAT-aunt". Meaning a really good aunt. Then it sounded OK.

I love those kids so much. I hope you enjoyed the pics. I'll get some of all her five kids at Easter so you can see the rest. Oh, I forgot, 6 kids, she has one big one: her husband. Just kidding Patrick.

Blessings to everyone,
