Happy Birthday Ryan

Being a single mom is not easy...trying to play mom and dad to a son, who truly needed a father in his life, not a mom trying to play both roles!  I will never forget finding out I was pregnant right before my 21st birthday...  No partying with my friends...I would then be stuck at home with a baby by the time I was 21.5, NOT FUN!  Wild, oh boy was I wild...  I worked 2 jobs, then I got pregnant with Ry guy!  
Ryan calmed me down at the time, which most kids of single moms do!  Recently, he told me how jealous of his brother and sister he was...because THEY have scrapbooks and HE doesn't!  So, in the next few months, I am going to work more on Ryan's album - though some of the memories will simply have to come from him - since I have blocked so much stuff from his childhood!
So, since I am way behind in making his project...I figured there was a few of you who needed a jumpstart in creating past projects too!  

1. Look at your projects you have been meaning to get done - spend the next few months in actually GETTING them done!  Ryan's project fits into this category!  
2. Look at other projects, put together a few projects that you want to get done in the next few days, weeks or months!  Right now, I have 6 projects I want to get done!  
3. For at least 2 of the projects you need to get done, start to get a design sheet ready including the title of the project, what type of project, colors you are using - look at your stash of stuff you have bought, and "shop there" first, before you go to a store! 

Happy Birthday Ryan - thank you for standing by my side, helped as you could...  I hope today starts a brand new "you", a brand new way of looking at things, and a brand new outlook on life!  I love you - have a GREAT day!  Take the time to get stuff done this year - even though it might be a bit harder TO get them done!  

Thanks for stopping by, and happy birthday son!
