Back to School

It was back to school for us Tuesday or well the start of school if you want to look at it that way too.  My son started 4th grade and my daughter started Kindergarten!  I am so very proud to be their mom!  I don't usually post pictures but I just have to post one.  :)  I'm a mom......what can I say?



Here are the little cards that I slipped into their "mailboxes" the first day of school.  I LOVE making this size or 3x3 for fun occasions or holidays. 



Thanks for stopping by!  Have a great Friday!

    Amy your children are adorable! Did you cry sending your little off to Kindergarten? I thought it was definitely harder on me with my youngest.
    I adore these little notes. Such a wonderful idea.

    Amy, they are precious!!!
    And they grow up so fast...
    I cried yesterday when Dinky wouldn't let me kiss him goodbye...
    he thinks he's too big...
    he's 5!!! :(
    And he would be proposing to your gorgeous girl in a heartbeat...
    just so you know! *giggle*
    And those cards...
    I'm so stealing your idea...

    Wear your mommy badge proudly and enjoy every moment of it!! :) Two adorable kids and yes, they grow up waaaaay too quickly. Have my soon to be sixth grader promise me he would still snuggle with me even when he gets bigger LOL! Great cards! Love the spiral punches at the top and I'm sure they loved getting them in their lunches. I have two weeks to go before we start up.

    Great picture of your kids! Our youngest daughter started Kindergarten this year too.

    Love how you made a card with the spiral notebook die. I'm going to use that for teacher cards. Thanks for the inspiration!
