The photograph is of Hubs - taken when he was 5 years old whilst at the local RAF base air day.


When my sisters and I were small we would hold tea parties with our toys - as most little girlie's do - out came the tea set and we would sit for hours playing pretend tea parties. The Graphic 45 papers were a dream to cut - I love the little paper doll dresses - perfect for poppet dolls.


The DT challenge this month was to create a page documenting what brings you peace - for me its the knowledge that I am responsible for making my own happiness - happiness doesn't just happen - you have to decide if you want to be happy - you can live your life being negative and nit picky - always complaining and criticising - that's your choice to be like that - or you can be positive and upbeat - I know which I would rather be and thank the book "The Secret" for helping me on my way to a much more positive and happier way of life.
My life is far from perfect - having a son with such complex needs certainly is testing at times, but instead of wallowing in a bed of self pity and wishing our life was different - I just roll my sleeves up and crack on with my lot....I make the choice to be happy and with this choice comes an inner peace.....it kinda makes me feel bad in a "bad girl" way that I know that I am in control of my life and that I am free to make choices - its fun!


I found this clock whilst I was sorting through some boxes in our attic - the Graphic 45 papers have given it a new lease of life and its now making its way to hang on my nephews nursery wall.

The DT have blown me away with how every ones work is soo different this month - go take a look here and see for yourself.
Have a good weekend.

Totally agree with your sentiments about being Happy..some people waste so much time looking for it instead of creating it :D
