Yesterday I finally had the opportunity to do some much-coveted “crafting with Adele“. Our kiddies had a play together while we sat down to make this beautiful pot of flowers! The tutorial came from split coast stampers, but I’m not sure where exactly as Adele printed it out for me, and I can’t find an exact match in my google search (my apologies to the clever lady who deserves the credit for this card idea!)
The bunch of flowers is adhered to the card that slides out of the pot “pocket”…
How cute is that!! I think this card is going to my oldest son’s school teacher. Over the weekend their classroom building was arsoned. Although their classroom was not actually damaged a great deal in the fire, the building is aspestos and the mammoth amounts of water that cascaded through the building have meant that nothing from their classroom is salvageable. It is devestating to see the other half of the building where the fire was strongest. It totally gutted the top floor of the building. Talking to my son’s teacher I realised for her and the other 7 teachers it is more than just a classroom – it is an extension of them. The kids have decorated and organised, and the teachers have invested so much personally – books, resources, etc. On a positive note, I have never seen 10 demountable buildings be constructed so quickly. The community have rallied and supported our school, it is so lovely to witness.
So this is me saying Thank you

Unfortunately my family and I have been unwell. I have learned that in a family with 4 kids, the flu goes on FOREVER!!! The last couple of weeks have felt never ending! Having grown up in a family of 7 kids, you would think I should have known this, but I didn’t realise just how much my mum and dad did for us kids when we were sick, and how long they did it for!! THANK YOU MUM AND DAD! I love you and think you are legends!
Probably not in my dreams even, but I can wish!
