It's Monday!

I hope you are all having a happy day!! I have been looking forward to this week all summer long!!! I get to see Benny on Thursday!!! I fly out to South Carolina on Wenesday and I will be there for Parent Day on Thursday!!! Benny's graduation is on Friday and I fly back home on Saturday!! Gooooo Benny!!!! I just can't wait to see him!! I have been watching Parent Day videos and it is very moving!! I am bringing a box of kleenex with me that's for sure!!! Until then, I have library training today and tomorrow and then I have to report to the school on Monday. I am pretty sure I will at least have half days in the Library and for that I am very thankful!!! We are trusting the Lord regarding insurance and income!! Things are still sooooo hard!! I trust it is all going to work out, but it will only be by the grace of God that's for sure!!!

If you get a chance during your day, please pray for Benny. He is missing soccer tryouts this week and there is a good chance that he will not make the team. That will be so sad with it being his senior year. As a mom, I really hope it works out, but I just have to remember that it was his choice to join the military his junior year instead of his senior year! He really is flourishing there, so for that I am really grateful!!!

Scrapping the Music!!!

This week's song at Scrapping the Music is Kiss Me Through the Phone by Soulja Boy. I took the lyrics "I miss You" and decided to make a page for my sweetie. It seems like all we do right now is work just to stay afloat in these difficult economic times and I want him to know that I miss him. Miss the time we used to have together. I hope things will brighten up soon!! We so need a break!!!
Well, I am off to work!!! I still have to post my vacation photos and Little Red Scrapbook layouts, so I will be back later on tonight! I also have to visit all of your blogs! It is time to be organized again!!!

Have a great day!!!

  1. I absolutely love the "I Miss You" layout....not only for what it represents (what a touching and creative way to express what you feel), but how marvelously the negative space works to bring the focus in on the pictures and wording. It's beautiful.

  5. Oh Kristii, I bet you are soooo excited for Wednesday to get here!! You must be sooo proud of him! I love the layout too, and I totally know how you feel, we don't have a whole lot of time together lately, what with kids schedules and other stuff going on. I pray the good Lord watches over us all and brings us the peace and security we all need!
