Happy Valentine's Day

This Saturday was Emma's first Valentine's Day. Much to my surprise, she received numerous Valentines, many from the kiddos at daycare. Emma and I spent the day together while JMT worked. Once he got home, we had take-out sushi and caught up on our Tivo. I know it doesn't sound terribly romantic, but it was exactly how I wanted to spend the time. JMT and I were lucky this year to have such a sweetheart to spend the day with.

Gettin' Crafty

I was on my morning blog-surf this morning, and saw this posted on my friend Tricia's site.

The first seven people to respond to this post will get something made by me. This offer does have some restrictions and limitations:

  • What I create will be personalized and intended for you.
  • It’ll be done this year (2009).
  • You will have no idea what it’s going to be. It may be knitted, sewn, papercrafted, used in a bubble bath, related to photography, graphic design-y, or perhaps a mix CD. I might even bake you something and mail it to you. Who knows? Not you, that’s for sure!
  • The catch? You have to put this offer in your journal as well and make seven things for your friends! (If you have already done this, then I will happily add you to the list.)
This is a direct cut-and-paste so I can't promise knitted or sewn, unless I dig some projects out of the deep, deep archives.  But I think it's a fun idea, and it gives me some projects to look forward to.

Let's get craftin!
