An awesome saturday...

Well here it is 12.30am and i should be asleep, but alas i am not -

After doing a 2.30am thursday night to get the school P&C newsletter all typed up - and then friday all day up at the school to get it printed and out to parents, i decided that friday afternoon after picking the peeps up from school we would be going on a road trip to Stamp Antics , where i bought some lovely papers and delish rub ons {which are still in their bag on my desk waiting for me to finally get in there and attack them} - we then headed home via the butcher and the wine shop { that was a very tactful way of saying bottle-O}- yes friday night was fun - because i was up late again - i think my new message to self on sunday night when the weekend is all done will be -- GO TO BED AND GET SOME SLEEP!

The kids chilled after a big week - miss chicken had gym wednesday night for 2 hours and then again on thursday for another 3 hours - and let me tell you the little darling was still so excited and pumped after doing all that exercise. Old matey has been going really well with his guitar practice - i find him picking it up and strumming away without any hints { although his strumming is a bit hap hazard as his little arms move away from where he should be strumming to nearer the frets - yep it makes this horride noise}-- it is a good sign when i can stop asking them to put more of an effort in and they just do it cause they want to -- makes me so proud to say --They are my little people!

This post is all about the leadup to the most fabulous daughter anyone could have - you see my beautiful princess really needs to be pushed to do things - well after this week with all her extra gym sessions - today was the icing on my cake and has just topped my year off.......miss chicken had gym this morn for roughly 4 hours and she was really pushed to her limits - i could see it in her mannerisms - but she stuck it out and still had the smile on her face at the end of the session { yep no tantrums} - well i asked her if she wanted to go back to gym this arvo - and she did - she trained for another 2 hours - and was still pumped at the end of it...if you knew her you would not think this possible - you would actually think i am telling a porky pie - but i kid you not - i am so proud of her -- she tells me she has a goal and she is going to get it -- did i tell you how proud i am of her! -- i am totally loving this -- She is so special ...so this post is all for you miss chicken and how much you have grown as a little person...you have totally won me over yet again and captivated my heart ..oh and the little comment this afternoon - "i am almost a teenager mum can i please watch an m rated movie - its only 3 more years?' - mum said " not likely, but good try" - i love you....and its now 1am and i am still jumping up and down inside for you.

So friends i have no photos of scrapping to show today although i did do a couple of journal blocks in preparation for some scrapping i will be doing - but instead you get to see how beautiful and special my little miss chicken is to me..

stay safe and have a great weekend
