Busy catching up ... part 2
These are the rest.... one little pocket album and 3 small canvasses. The pocket album is for my father-in-law. He is going to Greece for 3 months, visiting family. So I thought he will miss the kids the most, and decided to make him this little booklet so he can have them in his shirt pocket, look at them any time, any day he wishes, or brag to friends and relatives when he wishes (they are pretty brag-worthy, I reckon ...hahahah ). BTW.... not all 3 kids are mine. The photos are in this order : My daughter - 4yrs, my son - 3yrs and my nephew - 1.5yrs.
As for the canvasses. they are for Aunty Anna, hubby's maternal aunty in Greece. She has never seen these grand niece and nephews of hers. I've never seen her to by the way. So she can also have the same photos ... just prettier and more elaborate than what my FIL has. My FIL will probably be jealous now... but I really don't care.
Oh.... a few of the scrapbooking girls are gathering on the 9th of July. We are going to visit this HUGE scrapbooking store up in Mornington. And Shirls is going to join us too. I'm so excited to meet her for the first time and I'm really looking forward to it. CAN'T WAIT, Shirls!!!
This Saturday, we will have a little get-together at home to celebrate the kids' birthday. I always celebrate both the kids' birthday together cos their birth dates are only 2 weeks apart. I know some die-hard goody mothers frown at me cos they think I'm not being fair to the kids... that they have to share the lime light. As far as I'm concern, I think I'm teaching them to be appreciative that their birthdays are being celebrated, together with family and friends who love them. Many unfortunate kids out there don't even know when their birthdays are... probably haven't seen decent food for as long as they have lived, let alone a birthday cake.
On that note, I'll sign off now.... (and note to self: remember to take photos of the get-together)
