this is where i'm at on my teacher gift. i embroidered the words "criss cross applesauce", "thank you!" and her name on the bottom (not shown). i remember when C first started saying "criss cross applesauce" and she would sit with her legs crossed on the floor, like a really good student. apparently my C is what you would call a teacher's pet. she strives to impress her teacher and always do her best. i admire that she tries to do her best and that she respects her teacher so much that she wants to get her approval. i'm glad that she has learned the importance of being a good student from what we've taught her. so, because her teacher says this a lot to her students when she wants them to sit and pay attention, i thought it would be nice to embroider it onto her present. i still need to finish embroidering and add the drawing that C made of herself. i'm working on it right now.other than that, i have been really busy getting some cleaning done! my body is achey and sore, but i think it was well worth it because now i have nice, bright, clean floors! it had been ages since i last did a thorough cleaning of my kitchen, dining room and living room floors. i don't really like to clean cause i feel it takes away from all the crafting i could be doing, but since i've been getting a lot of crafting done, i thought it was time.
so, i guess i'm finally out of my depression. i feel good and i feel hope and i look forward to this summer! i need to start planning what trips or activities we would like to do this summer as a family and what new projects i want to start on. the future is looking bright and full of opportunities!
