Just For Fun!!!

Okay, I know I did one of these last week but no one responded so I'm trying it again. Comon' guys, don't let me down...

The first five people to respond to this post will get something made by me! My choice. For you. This offer does have some restrictions and limitations:

1. I make no guarantees that you will like what I make!

2. What I create will be just for you.

3. It'll be done this year (hopefully sooner than later.)

4. You will have no clue what it is going to be.

5. I reserve the right to do something extremely strange. :)

The catch? Oh the catch is that you must re-post this on your blog. The first 5 people to do so and leave a comment telling me you did will win a FAB-U-LOUS homemade gift by me!

Chris 'n Leah said...: Hey Valerie, go check out my friends blog, Patterson family. She had a "fancy Nancy" party for her little girl. It was WAY out of my league as far as parties go but I could TOTALLY see you giving Desire a party just like that. It looked like so much fun, I want a party like that for myself!; March 2, 2009 at 10:45 AM

Benjamin

Our 7 year old comedian always keeps us laughing. Benjamin is such a nut with his goofy dances and crazy faces. He always has a wierd sound or silly comment to make. Benjamin is so creative and artistic. He loves all things crafty. Just give him some paper, scissors, glue and maybe some paint and he surprises me with something amazing everytime. Benji plays so well with his brothers and sister. He is so tender with the younger ones but he can really keep up with Spencer too. We love him and his happy, happy personality.

Andrew

Our 5 year old curiosity keeps us busy. Andrew is very curious and inquizative. He is always investigating how things work and what makes them do what they do. He likes to take things apart whether with his hands or using an implement of some sort. Andrew is the most loving, sweet and huggable boy ever. He says "I love you Mommy." at least 100 times a day. Usually in conjunction with a big hug. Maybe it's just a ploy so I won't get too mad when he is mischevious. Either way, it works. We love his intense eyebrows and very animated gestures.

Desirae Jeanette

Our 3 year old split personality is a terror if she is tired or hungry. (kind of like her mom) Desirae can be an emotional wreck if something sets her off. At times she will start crying for whatever reason and won't be able to stop. Mom can usually get her settled down with a rocking chair and some snuggles and songs. My only worry is that if she is at this point now, what will she be like in 10 years??? No matter the outcome, we are so lucky and blessed to have such a sweet, beautiful little lady in our family. Her brothers all adore her and really watch out for her. We love her and her emotional episodes.

Great Dad

Our Super-Fun Daddy loves playing with his kids. Gary is the best Daddy and husband. His greatest desire is that we are all happy. He spends all of his time and energy doing whatever it takes to give his family all they need. Gary really enjoys his job as the Postmaster so his time at work is not too bad. Gary is so fun. All the kids get so excited when Daddy comes home. They all run and scream to the door as he comes in. He is an amazing man. We love his humor and how hard he works for us.

Lucky Mom

Our Nutty Mom is a bit wierd. All I have to say about my life is that I am THE luckiest lady ever. I spend my days at home with my "perfect" children. While they play quietly together, with never a squabble or dispute, I get to take uninterupted time to develop my personal interests. I exercise 1 hour every morning then shower, do my hair and make-up and get dressed in well tailored clothes. I then prepare a perfectly balanced breakfast of homemade waffles, freshly sliced fruit, wholesome milk and all before anyone else gets out of bed...Then the baby starts screaming from her crib down the hall and I have to lug my tired butt out of bed and get my real day started. Seriously, I wouldn't trade it for the world. What other job would allow me to spend an entire day in front of the computer setting up a blog all about my fantastic life???
