Well the kids are happy today. It is going to be a very quiet day at my house today. The reason for this is because I can’t talk. No seriously I can’t. I have laryngitis. So, if I can’t talk then I can’t yell either. So this is why they will be happy. They can pretty much do anything they want to do and all I can do is whisper at them. How much fun is that?? But, I am happy to say that my voice has nothing to do with my blogging or crafts so I will still be around and keep busy. Thankfully it’s my voice that’s gone and nothing to do with my hands! I would be so….lost!

My youngest niece is participating in her first communion. So, I was quite happy to see that my sister-in-law has been mailing out her first communion invitations. This is a very huge deal for my niece and I’m really hoping that all the family members that received this invitation in the mail will attend. But, with my family you never know. At least, though, my entire family will be there to support her as I think this is a pretty big step for anyone to make and they deserve all the encouragement and support that they can get.
