I hope your daughter gets a kick out of seeing herself and her beautiful artwork featured!
Have a blessed week!
Thanks for the party.

I’m so sorry Ramona that I cannot back link to your post this week. I had an issue and had to finish up in ‘text’ and an hour later…I was able to publish. Arrgh! But….I don’t want to mess up my formatting all over again. I hope you’ll understand…I always do link back…this is an exception.
Hope your day was lovely and filled with JOY!
Thanks for letting me know Diane – not a problem! My internet has acted up all weekend! No access most of Saturday and today? The connection is only holding for a few minutes at a time! It senses when “techie dad” is not around!
Have a blessed week!
Thanks for hosting, and Happy Mother’s Day!
Happy Mother’s Day…Thanks so much for hosting!

Hi Ramona,

My kids love to read!

Happy mother’s Day! 🙂 Although I get confused as I thought there already was a mother’s day this year. 🙂 I guess each country has it’s own date for that.
Yes, different countries celebrate Mother’s Day on different days! You can never give mothers too much love!
Thank you for hosting – hope you had a lovely Mothers Day.
Good morning – linking up and promoting on the Ruby community site, blog, and FB page! Have a great Monday . . . . hope you had a nice weekend. I’ll be asking about your book reviews soon for the June issue of the Ruby magazine, so be thinking of one or two that we can include. Thanks for ALL you do to minister to women through your creative and loving heart! HUGS, Nina
Will do! Thanks so much! 🙂
Thanks for hosting & have a great week! Theresa @ DearCreatives.com

Linking up my Inspire post for this week – a magic moment 🙂
Sarah @ A Cat-Like Curiosity
Well, I got in a little earlier in the list this week. :O) Happy Mother’s Day!
Your paper creations just reminded me of the yearbooks/journals that we used to have in the VN schools. They were more like journals passed around by friends, and they would create beautiful paper designs or drawings…somethings don’t change…
It’s awesome to know that the minds were just as savvy back then, even with less choices and tools of course. Have a wonderful Monday. 🙂
Thanks for hosting! I hope you had a wonderful Mother’s Day!
very cute features! thanks for hosting
