Kids, Flying Time, Big Hearts and UHauls

10 Comments/ 2053/ 0

It’s time for Hilary’s Friday hop!!!  Check out her statements and fill in the blanks!!! This week’s co-host is Tami from Empty Nest in IL.  She came up with the last two statements this week!

I would LOVE it if you could please help me spread the word about this hop…. So, please tweet, FaceBook share, and add the linky to your post…

This week’s statements:

1.       When I ___ I feel that ___ paid off

2.       I just realized that____

3.       My _______ come from _______.

4.       If I had _____, I would ______.

 My Answers:
1.   When I look at our two sons  I feel that being a stay at home mom when they were little  paid off.
2.    I just realized that I really need to get Christmas presents wrapped, shipped and out of here or else I am going to run out of time.
3.    My love of people comes from both of my parents who taught me that every person has an intrinsic value and worth. 
4.  If I had any more stuff to make cards and scrapbooking paraphernalia , I would need a Uhaul to take it all back to Iowa when I move back to our house.  
Thanks, Hilary, for a great blog hop today!!! Go on over and join in the fun by going to Feeling Beachie!

      I think they will, Susi! It is pretty neat to see that the time and commitment and sometimes sacrifice paid off. They are our biggest achievement!
