If you notice at the top, my blog says it is about cards, cooking, sometimes, and making books.
Since I am in the middle of a huge card project and am not doing anything new right now, I decided to share a book.....or two.....three.
I have always done books with my kids about our adventures, etc. When they were preschool, I printed out what they told me to write and they illustrated the story. After they could write, they did their own with pictures, and I just bound them with construction paper. (This began in the mid sixties)
Fortunately, by the time grandchildren arrived, I was retired and truly enjoyed putting books together for them to read aloud... or read to them. The following book is one that I did when they were very tiny. When I look at the grainy pictures, I see how far we have evolved with our digital cameras.
So enjoy with a 'grain of salt'--remembering this is back from the days when I did not know much about computers and all of the things that go into a "good" job! Its been a well-loved book, on the nightstand in their bedroom at my house.






(Where did the years go? They are now 14 and 15!?)
