Scribble Linens

{no, i am not getting paid to write this... i just have a really talented friend that i want to tell you about.}

I met Sarah in college 16 years ago. Wait, what? Yes, I had to count again.
Am I really that old?

Anyway...

I met Sarah through my sweet sister, Kristi. They were roommates at Baylor for a year. We lost touch once I graduated, but, of course, found each other via Facebook a couple years ago. We would "like" each others pictures, comment here and there, and then....

In December 2012, she announced that she had launched a new product. WHAT?!?! So, I had to check it out. Well... it happened to be so cool that I couldn't not tell you about it.

Check it out here to see for yourself how cool it is!

Here is how we use Scribble Linens at my house...

First, I about died at how cute the place mats looked on my table!

Then, I had Archer play a money game while he waited for his food to be served.

Last, we checked his answers, erased the place mat, and turned it back over just in time for the food to be served!

Next item on my wish list... a Scribble Linens runner. I love what Sarah did for the wine and cheese party. Look at her cover picture on their Facebook page here to see it.

What would you do with a Scribble Linen?

Has it really been 6 years!?!

Dear Sweet Archer,

Where has the time gone? It seems that each year the time goes faster and faster. That scares me. So often your Daddy and I try to stop and soak it all in... we don't want to look back on this time and forget it! We love that you are growing up, but, like I always say... You'll always be my baby!


I can't believe that you are turning 6 today. Now you can have to use BOTH hands to tell people how old you are. I can't imagine how I will feel when you are DOUBLE DIGITS... I won't think about it because then I just might cry.


Six years ago you changed my life completely and now I couldn't imagine life without you. You bring such joy...and craziness... to my life, and I wouldn't have it any other way.

I love you from the top of your head to the tips of your toes.


I love your brain. I love how you think and how much you think...even though sometimes it drives me crazy. It sure keeps me on my toes. I pray that for your whole life you will use your "smartness" for the Lord. That you will always feed your brain with things "not of this world."



I love your big brown eyes. They tell so much about how you are feeling. Never lose that sparkle!


I love your little button nose...I especially love giving you eskimo kisses. I love that you STILL will give me eskimo kisses.


I love your voice. I love all of the things that you have to say. You are so articulate, observant... and funny! I love hearing you sing, tell stories, and play with your little brothers.


I love the way you give bear hugs and are always willing to cuddle with me on the couch. I pray that you always want to give me hugs because I sure will never stop giving them to you. I asked you the other day if you would still cuddle with me when you were a teenager. Wanna know what you said? "Yea, I'll still cuddle with you. I cuddle with you until you die." That couldn't have meant more to me.


I love your not-so-little hands.. when they're dirty from playing outside, when you hold mine while walking across the street, or when you unknowingly lay them on me while we are watching TV.
I love your heart; it is so big! You feel so much...for other people who are hurting and when you are in trouble. I pray that as you gave your heart to Jesus earlier this year... that you would always let Him have your heart COMPLETELY. 
I love your tummy. I love when I hear you belly laugh from the other room.


Speaking of laughter, you are so full of it. It started with a silly chuckle when you were a small baby and has turned into a wonderful sound. You take after your Daddy. Never lose your desire to laugh.


I love your legs. How fast you are! It has been so fun starting to watch you play and explore new sports. You are growing so much!



I will love you FOREVER!

Happy Birthday, sweet boy!

Love,
Mommy
