Our Rising Star


My granddaughter got an award for being a Rising Star.  It is given to students who teachers have sent a letter to the national board (and I think it's the PTA, but don't quote me on that ).  Donna is so proud of her award, its made of marble and in her words is not a plastic trophy, so it must be good.   She also got a copy of the letter her teacher sent in, you can see it here as well.   Did I tell you that I'm so proud of her?   I know my daughter is watching over her and smiling at her accomplishments.

I have managed to do a little stitching, but not much.  My big accomplishment is a finish!!  My second one for 2015.   Also got my canvas, will take a picture of it once I get it out and on the stretcher bars.  Going to pull out about 4 canvases to work on along with my many, many x-stitch projects.  One of them is bound to be finished before year end….right?   If not, then 2016 will be my year of finished :)

  4. You tell your adorable Rising Star how very proud we all are of her.

    I bet she checks on her trophy and dusts it daily :)
