Hello, Sorry I haven’t posted lately time has been getting away from me. Today I would like to talk about family. The family member today is my brother. He is a wonderful dad,husband,uncle, brother and son. If it wasn’t for him we would have never been able to buy our house when we did.
He’s a successful businessman. Some of his conquest include, Salem Sportswear,Vintage Vending, and Retro planet check it out. http://www.retroplanet.com/
Well anyways I am off the subject like always. My brother is 5 years older than me. Although he has everything he needs or wants, he looks forward to his birthday card. He has many interests but likes to explore fishing in Marco Island florida often. Here is the card I created for him, because I appreciate everything he does for me. Thanks for checking in. Have a creative Day!!!

Shelby and Jay Tie The Knot
My son’s best friend’s sister is getting married tomorrow. My son called me to ask if I could make the couple a card. It felt great, that he asked me to make it. That must mean he really likes my cards because he is giving them to others.
Remember when your kids were young the last thing they wanted to do is hang out, or go places with you. They ask to go to the movies and you had to drop them off where the parking lot started so their friends couldn’t see them being dropped off by you. When they went to the mall they wanted your money but walked ahead of you so they weren’t seen with you.
So when my son asked me to make the card for him you could imagine how I felt. Yes I felt like a kid at Christmas. Very excited.. So if your kids are still young and they don’t want to be seen with you. Don’t worry it’s just not convenient for them right now. I promise that will change. They will grow up to respect and enjoy their time with you. Really they will.
Baptism or Christening
Sunday my nephew is getting christened here is the card I made for him. I just looked up the difference between A christening and a baptism. To me it’s one in the same. Some people say they are different. Each ceremony is the act of giving yourself to god. A baptism supposedly wipes your sins clean,but what sins can a newborn have? A christening I read is a naming ceremony. When a child leaves the hospital the name is already determined. I believe the child in the catholic ceremony takes on the name of a saint.
The god parents are suppose to make sure the child pursues the faith the parents have chosen for them.What if the father doesn’t believe in the whole christening thing and the mother insists. Isn’t this hypercritical? How do you explain to a child when they get older mom believes and dad doesn’t? Is it up to the godparents at this point to make sure the child goes to church because one parent agrees and the other doesn’t. Is the assignment of godparents an easy way so the parents don’t have to address the questions of religion?
