This past year has been such a blessing! I have loved being at home with both my boys. I've had fun playing with them, and have also had fun squeezing in some CRAFT-time while they play beside me. Alas, my maternity leave is coming to an end; I'm going back to work on May 17th :(
Sadly, the reality is that when I go back to work, my paper crafting and blogging will slow down drastically (if not come to a complete stop). I teach high school English, and since I'll be going back with only 6 weeks left of the school year, I'll likely be up to my eyeballs in marking papers {insert big pout here}.I'm going to try to squeeze in as much papercrafting and blogging as I can over the next few weeks, and I thought I'd do a BLOG CANDY giveaway too!! I thought about doing one for my 100th post (but that may be by next week). So I'll draw for the candy on May 16th (the day before I go back to work).
