Today was pretty awesome for me. It was a day full of accolades and surprises.
This morning I found out that an article was in the Herald Union, the newspaper for Baumnolder and Wiesbaden Army Garrisons. I knew that a picture was going to be in the paper today, but didn’t realize that the class would get the amount of space that it did. I was expecting a small picture (that we submitted) with a caption, but there was a half-page article, titled “TF RAM Offers Responsible Parenting”. What a great way to recognize the efforts of our Batallion to take care of our spouses!
Then this afternoon, I received a private message from Digital Scrapbook Place, the absolute BEST digital scrapbooking websits. The private message said that one of my layouts was on the list of DSP’s Top 100 Most Viewed Pages. I’m number 62 on the list! This was such a huge surprise to me!!! The layout that made the list was Build-a-Bear using a plopper and page kit by Linda Rechtin.
I have had a really hard time finding the time to scrapbook like I would like to. There is just only so many things that I can get done in a day, but receiving this message was a huge boost to my desire to find the time to scrap!
Also, this afternoon, I recieved a message from a blogger friend about two of my recipes, Strawberry Chesecake French Toast and Lasagna Soup, that she has recently tried with her family. These recipes were met with huge success! And I am so glad that her family has enjoyed them. In fact, I think I’m going to have to work the Strawberry Cheese cake French Toast into our weekend…it’s yummy!
So…to say the least, today was a very good day for Monica! I am so thankful for days like today that are filled with encouragement.
