There are highs in every day - you just have to know where to look for them - but some days they are easy to spot and today was such a day.
The highs were easy to find.
I had a very productive day and even went out during the working day - work .... but out.
Plus a project I have been working on for a while was finished and I am really thrilled with it.
Plus it is less cold, tomorrow is Friday, I ate treacle tart and I saw my home in the daylight.
What's not to love about today!
I love days like this.
I have new scrapping to share as well.
Dawn Inskip has a brand new collection released today and my oh my is is a whopper.
There is so much in it - you HAVE to check it out - you can catch it at a reduced price HERE
It is called Photo Frenzy.
This is my first page with it and it the man behind the camera.

I love the picture in the middle where he has turned round as he spotted I was snapping him snapping flowers.
It's a fantastic collection with alphas and frames and cameras and doodles and papers and just very very useable.
Today I am thankful for
- great artwork
- a completed project
- a chance to share new ideas
- enthusiasm
- oh .... and I am sorry but it has to be there .... treacle tart

And I have the most beautiful story to share from my best friend who had it on her Facebook page.
LETTER FROM A MOTHER TO A DAUGHTER:
"My dear girl, the day you see I’m getting old, I ask you to please be patient, but most of all, try to understand what I’m going through.
If when we talk, I repeat the same thing a thousand times, don’t interrupt to say: “You said the same thing a minute ago”... Just listen, please. Try to remember the times when you were little and I would read the same story night after night until you would fall asleep.
When I don’t want to take a bath, don’t be mad and don’t embarrass me. Remember when I had to run after you making excuses and trying to get you to take a shower when you were just a girl?
When you see how ignorant I am when it comes to new technology, give me the time to learn and don’t look at me that way... remember, honey, I patiently taught you how to do many things like eating appropriately, getting dressed, combing your hair and dealing with life’s issues every day...
the day you see I’m getting old, I ask you to please be patient, but most of all, try to understand what I’m going through. If I occasionally lose track of what we’re talking about, give me the time to remember, and if I can’t, don’t be nervous, impatient or arrogant. Just know in your heart that the most important thing for me is to be with you.
And when my old, tired legs don’t let me move as quickly as before, give me your hand the same way that I offered mine to you when you first walked.
When those days come, don’t feel sad... just be with me, and understand me while I get to the end of my life with love. I’ll cherish and thank you for the gift of time and joy we shared.
With a big smile and the huge love I’ve always had for you, I just want to say, I love you... my darling daughter." - Unknown
