A Penny for your Thoughts...

Good morning all,

Hope you had a great Easter, mine was fabulous! Any time I get to spend with my kids is always a joy! I get to see them again Saturday for my birthday celebration, their taking me to Boston for some fun activities!!! I can't wait...wow 2 weeks in a row to spend time with the kids that's a gift I always treasure!

Anyway, onto my card. Jessica's best friend Sarah is having a baby in August & I wanted to send her & Troy a congratulations card. I saw these Whiff of Joy images last year & just had to get them along with the wedding images I bought, hehehe...I was thinking ahead! I also have the one with Willow holding her baby & will probably use that one after Sarah brings her newborn home. These images are so precious, I love them! I look at this image & wonder what is she thinking? Is she thinking about what kind of mother she will be or if her baby will be healthy or smart? Didn't we all go through the same thing when we were pregnant, so many thoughts go through our minds. What do you think she is thinking of as she sits on the swing?

It's a beautiful day here in New England, right now hubby is working in the yard for awhile & then we are going to go & enjoy this fabulous day! Thanks for stopping by, have a great day!
