Smiles

What a smile on this face. I love these pictures the kids had made of their three girls. And I love the smile on Bellas face. She looks so much like her mother when she was this age. Sure brings back memories. I don't know where this black background came from but I do know the flowers are from AKD eleganzagold Bouq.

Grandmas Believe

What is better than chocolate? Hugs and kisses of course from grandchildren. And with their quick little minds and their big imaginations grandmas can still believe. I still believe in Fairies, Dragons, Princess', Santa, Tooth Fairy, and the Easter Bunny. God has blessed me with so many of these wonderful creatures. Life wouldn't be complete without all my little ones (even the half grown ones). Thank you "CCher" @ Stone Accents for this great Midnight Silouette kit. I think it kind of makes us all want to believe.

Top Model

She received this cute little swim suit for her birthday this year and she looks cute as can be. So when she was standing there I just had to take the photo. And of course being grandma I just know she is the next super top model around.

Cousins

These are my two oldest grandchildren. They are 2 years apart and have been close since the day my grandson was born. They are more like brother and sister than cousins. They defend each other to the death. And usually one gets in trouble the other one isn't far behind. Of course they have had a few knock down and drag outs, but they always forgive each other. Just like siblings.

Father

I took this off the blog and edited it in PSE6. I wanted to add the quote by Robert Thomas Allen. My father had a really hard time after he had to take disability because of his heart. He had worked for so many years and traveled doing it. Once it stopped the only travels he was able to enjoy was on the television.

Good Times

Three of my granddaughters cooling off in the Lake on the 4th of July. It was so hot and they just wanted to put their feet in. So grandma told them sure. First time the little one ever saw anything like that. Only 20 minutes from the gulf and she hasn't ever seen it. The kit for this LO was "Fruit Smoothie". I got it at ScrapGirls. It was their Mega Monthly kit. The colors are just right for this page. Thanks all of you at SG for the wonderful work you do.

Dreamin

My grandson is going through so much right now that this picture just kind of says it all. He is still to young to understand that grown ups don't stop and think about what their lies, and actions can do to a child. That it isn't the childs fault and that the adults around them need to remember that a child will always take the blame first. The adults in this childs life has made him feel guilt over his own emotions, thoughts and desires. Always remember that your hurts are nothing compared to a childs. They are the innocents in this adult world and it is your job to make sure they are not to blame for what has happened in your life. The stamp is from BHA and the border is called bit-wear-tear-scruffedge. I don't know who made it Thank you whomever did. And the BG and word art I don't know where they came from. But thanks to the artist who made them.
