Plum 2S4Y

See my puuurdy flowers? Got that from my favorite man. He’s so sweet that way every now and then.
Tonight I got a chance to make a card and I combined 2sketches4you’s sketch, Laura #38, with Moxie Fab’s plum challenge. Basically you have to use purple and as some of you know I’m not a purple fan (although the ruffle shirt on Moxie’s post is cute, ha!). Actually I’ve been ok with dark purple. But light ones… eeek. Due to my dislike for light purple I made this card.
What’s new here? Normality! Jovie is finally normal again and M is a-ok. What’s up with M? Well, last Thursday she had a little melt down. It’s not Jovie related this time. It’s actually more of a lesson for us parents to think before we speak. When hubby tucked M in she asked when he’s leaving for England. Since M has no concept of time hubby said that he’ll be leaving a little bit before her birthday. M went “oh” and waited for me to tuck her in (I was putting Jovie to bed). When I came in M’s room she was under the covers and when I uncovered her she was crying and it got very loud and uncontrollable after I held her. In between sobs she said that she’s sad because daddy’s not going to be there for her birthday and that there’d be no cupcakes on her big day (remember I suck at baking). The daddy then came in and she would not let him go… still crying of course. After a lot of consoling she finally calmed down. We did agree on two birthdays. One before he leaves and one on her actual day.
You might wonder why we’re not going together. Well, after much discussion we decided that it’ll be best to have him go first, find us a place, then ship the dogs over, and then us. Easier we think with Jovie.
K, nuff of the boring update. I’ll post more later!
