...not one of my finer creations.

I had the best intentions with this. I bought BSU paper and BSU stickers and was going to make Rob and the kids each a BSU composition book. Shhhh - I am putting together a little Geocaching gift for each of them with Geocaching.com hats, pencils, even some Charmin-on-the-go - ha. So I thought I'd put one of these in there too so that they can journal what they see or where they go. But I made a HUGE mistake - I tried this with those flimsy composition books, you know the ones that are barely a step above the blue books that we used in college? The glue tore up the cover, my glue runner tore up some of the paper, so I tossed the stupid thing in the garbage. Then I thought I would just make it for myself and use it to write down project notes or something. So I fixed it up and made a go of it and decided this will be good enough for K. She's only 4 - surely she won't notice the cover that I see now is starting to curve up and all the other mishaps I had with this. She'll focus on the colors and the flowers and call it good.

Oh yeah - I went home from work - SICK! I have a Doctor appointment at 4:15 though, so hopefully he'll give me some good stuff to get better - heh.

You're always your own worst critic. Just remember, you're new and K will love it no matter what.
