Happy Father's Day !!

We are just relaxing today - 

I know I've been a "absent" blogger - but I am going to try to be better about it. I am going to post on Sunday's at least and more if time permits.

I've been updating my scrapbooks lately, I put all my 2008 photos in an album, I will take it with me to football practices that start in August and do my journaling. I prefer to do the two things separately - when I sit down with my book to doodle and journal I can focus more on my photos to tell my stories. But for now I'm thrilled that they are in a book.

I've been taking some on line classes:
Alisa Burke
Donna Downey
Jen Hall

All different and very cool. I enjoy on line classes as I can work on it at my leisure in the comfort of my home at wee hours of the morning if I choose.

My son said something to me yesterday:
"Mom", he says, "you know that commercial about the abused animals"
"yes" i answer
"it touched my heart"
"yes, it's very sad"
he says "you know the music they  play"
"Yes" I answer
it touches my heart, it almost makes me cry
i say - "yes honey it's awful what some people do to animals"
then he says "what's abuse?"

of course I explained it to him
funny kid.
