April 13 FWF

Made this quick card for FWF this week, I colored it with twinkling H2Os (first time I am using these), and added lots of tiny green gems.  The tree stamp is from the Mothers Day weekly stamp, I do not know the name of the set the sentiment is from.



It has been a rough week around here, a late night trip to the ER with a sick toddler, a kitchen fire (the 2 year old stuffed a toy and some paper in the toaster and turned it on...), and an overflowing toilet, I am REALLY ready for this deployment to be over and the end of July cannot come soon enough.  When I was sitting in the ER at 3AM a few nights ago, some lady actually said to me that she thought it must be a nice break to have your husband deployed for a year - a break is not exactly what I would call it, I miss him every day and so does the kids. At first I was kinda mad about her comment, and thought that she was insensitive and thoughtless, but after I thought about it, I started feeling sorry for her, since it must not be nice living in a house where you think it is a break if your spouse is gone for a year. Hopefully everyone has a great weekend, I am sure that ours will be good, we are going to a soccer game tomorrow, and it should be lots of fun.

TFL!!!

  12. Eva, this card is gorgeous!!! A perfect CAS (I LOVE those...)! :) As for the lady...you are so right! I'm guessing her perspective is off for a reason. My hubby was gone for a little over a week to India this past winter and, with 3 little guys to care for on my own, I was SO ready for him to return! I can not imagine how you feel!! HUGS!

    Thanks so much for stopping by! :)

  16. Fabulous card! Hugs to you on your trying week - little ones can certainly wear you out, especially if you are on your own for whatever reason. Hope the next few months go quickly and uneventfully until your hubby is home again.
