Really love that background pp and those tags! But the best part of this lo are those darling pics. I really love the back story. Not enough of the kids nowadays have a good work ethic. Good for her and for you!
This is sensational. Love the back story. Someone else asked about those flowers. They are very unique and cool. Love that your kids have a good work ethic. Props to you. Cathy
What a great story, Pat! Work ethic is an underrated and under-taught art! Love that you scrapped this for your DD and LOVE the photos - but as you probably guessed, I LOOOOVE those sunfowers the most!!!
Wonderful page and design and a great story. Our own children worked for us at our plant growing up. So many kids today do not know how to give a day's work for a day's wage and expect everything to be handed to them so the ones who are hard workers really stand out. This is a pat on the back for you too, mom, for teaching your children good work ethics!
What a wonderful layout and great story!! I love the work ethic! Your paper choices are so pretty and I love the wood look. The tags and flowers set it all off. Great pictures!
These photos of my elder daughter are old, the first taken in 1990 and the last in 1998.
She first went to summer camp as an 8 year old, and later as a junior counselor, and finally as a member of my riding staff.
When she got her first "real" job, working at Barnes & Noble, her boss asked her, "where on earth did you learn to work?" She told him, "well, I worked for my mom for a couple of summers. She taught me that since I was going to be at work anyway, I might as well look for something to do because time passes faster when you stay busy, so I do. She taught me to look for work."
I think that's probably a legacy I left with all my riding staff - not just my own kids. I still hear from them on a regular basis thanking me for teaching them how to work. I just thought we were playing with horses.... Never occurred to me that it was WORK.
LOL

For ~ Monthly Sketch Challenge, Sketch #3 National Day Challenge ~ Working Parents Hoarders ~ The flower and leaf papers are ancient old. DaisyD on the flowers. I think they went out of business in like 2006?
