It's June 1st. My first year has ended as an assistant teacher, and I'm now certified to teach K-12. I'm waiting for God to send me my own kids. I can't wait to be with them, and I hope they will enjoy me. :)
We went into a bookshop, and I paged through some books. When I wanted to leave the store I searched for my boyfriend. He sat in a chair and pretended to be asleep. With a really harebrained expression and lolling tongue. LOL!
I was ready for a new journal for a new year. (Plus, my last one was just a few pages from being full.) So I decided to make a new one from scratch and I'm very happy with how it turned out. It's 8" x 10" and I filled it with various paper: watercolor paper, paper from a braille bible, rosin paper (used in construction), and pages from an old kid's book. The rubber stamps I used on it are all hand-carved except for the alphabet. I LOVE the binding I did!
