I haven't been doing much creating lately. My sweet little guy has been sick. I've been the pharmacy 3 out of the last 4 days. As I pulled into the parking lot at the pharmacy, it was like I was living in "Groundhog Day". I have even had the same parking place each time. I had to stop and think if I was wearing the same clothes. Amazing. While I feel so bad for my kids when they are sick, I sure do love the extra snuggling. Sick kids are so sweet! Yesterday when I came out of the kitchen, this is what I found and if you know my son, you would know that his only use for the couch is to jump off of it not fall asleep on it. He must be sick. Ain't he cute?

Yesterday was supposed to be my regular project day but I needed to take dinner to a family in our ward and between trips to the doctor and pharmacy and the cooking, I decided I wouldn't get much done. So I made a switch. I worked like crazy to cross of the stuff on two big lists so I could get back to my desk. Love it here.
I have been working on Laura's 2S4Y sketch today. When I first printed it, I was stumped. I couldn't get it together in my head, but last night as I looked at it right before I had to drag myself to bed, epiphany! I knew what I wanted to do. I love it when that happens. Except when I can't sleep thinking about my great plans. Gratefully, the two big lists made it impossible to stay awake.

I took a little creative license with the sketch, but I love how it turned out. The patterned paper is We R Memory Keepers. The glitter and embossed cardstocks are Doodlebug. The letter stickers are Making Memories and the rub-on letters are American Crafts. The yellow ribbon is Modex and the stitched twill is We R Memory Keepers.
Well, it's back to work for me. Dinner is in the Crock-pot so I can glue to my heart's content. Be back soon!
