Twenty Years Ago Today....



I gave birth to my first child. I can't believe my little boy is now a man. Not a teenager anymore. Funny...he said that to me the other day. "Mom, I'm not going to be a teenager anymore." This is Eric. He's so special to me.

Happy Birthday!!

Here's the card I made him for his birthday. It's perfect because he loves to fish!
I colored Riley with copic markers and the DP is Basic Grey. I used baubles and some hemp twine for embellishments.



Thanks for stopping by!

Time flies by. I know it will be a sad day when Hunter is "too big" to cuddle on my lap.
Good wishes to the Birthday "Man".

Hi Monica, Thanks for stopping by my blog and leaving a nice comment. Your cards are cute. So glad I got to meet you. My sons are quite a bit older, but I remember when they turned 20. It's a milestone, so congratulations.
