HAPPY Monday

This set was a blast to create!

Maybe because I had a Pickle Doodle Invite which served as a GREAT inspiration piece-

Having something to serve as a starting place is always FUN!

First came the invite.

Then came the cookies. 

All the stars must've been aligned--

the message cookie cutter from Plastics in Print is very close to the invite

and

the cute little birdie is a paisley cutter turned birdie just like the invite.

I only had to download the font for the message cookie!  

I already had both!

Thanks Amy!

HOPE

When everything seems to be looking down--do you have HOPE? 

 As a teacher, I see whats happening in education and it's scary. 

 Not only for my own children, but for all children! 

 I worry that if they have a so-so teacher and not so great parents, WILL THEY FALL THROUGH THE CRACKS and get an "okay" education? 

Where will the kids who get an "okay" education be in 10 years? 

Will they keep striving to reach their dreams? 

All I can have is HOPE for ALL of my children! 

 I know they can do it and I know they will be the best people they can be! 

They already are! 

 We must have HOPE! 

I have HOPE!

Do you?
