Introduction

Good morning! Welcome to my early morning routine. Today, I am up bright and early with a lot to do. I didn't have my usual cup of coffee because I had already had one earlier. I have been awake for a while now, and I hope You are having a great day too.

Early Morning Routine: Chocolate and Coffee

It's nine o'clock in the morning, and although it may seem early to some, I had to wake up early today because of the tasks at HAND. I had to take Eddie, our dog, to the doctor, and then we have my niece's birthday party to attend. So, there was no choice but to get up and get ready. As you join me, make sure you say hello and let me know you're here. I am going to quickly share this with my VIP group before we get started because time is limited today.

Busy Day Ahead: Doctor's Appointment and Birthday Party

Today is a busy day for me. I have a lot of things on my plate, starting with Eddie's doctor visit. Eddie, our adorable dog, needs his one-year-old puppy shots and allergy testing. It's important to Take Care of his health and allergies. After the doctor's visit, we have my niece's birthday party to attend. It's a joint celebration for both my one-year-old niece, Rowan, and my three-year-old niece, Sloane. Birthdays are always a joyful time for family get-togethers.

Getting Ready for the Day

As I Mentioned earlier, time is limited for me today. I don't have much time to spare because of all the activities planned. I apologize for not having my usual cup of coffee during this live stream. It seems I didn't plan my morning routine properly. However, I am still excited to be here with you all, and I hope this live stream brings a smile to your face.

Preparation for a Craft Project

Today's project is not a bundle project because I won't be using a chalk surface. Instead, I will be creating a shadow box frame. Normally, when I Create bundles, I like to use chalk surfaces. However, since this project is different, I decided to go with a shadow box frame. It's going to be a quick project, and I believe it will turn out cute.

Sharing Memories of Senior Year

Before we start the project, let me share something that has been on my mind lately. It's about memories from my senior year and the songs that bring back those memories. One specific song that comes to mind is "Molly 16 Candles" by the band Sponge. I love that song, and I recently made my son and husband listen to it. However, what surprised me was that I Never realized the true meaning behind the lyrics until now.

Variety of Songs and Their Meanings

I couldn't help but reflect on the fact that this is not the first time I've had this experience with songs. Another song that comes to mind is "Lady Picture Show" by Stone Temple Pilots. It used to be our dating song until we found out the dark meaning behind it. It made me wonder if others have had similar experiences with songs that they loved until they discovered the Hidden meanings. Let me know if you have any songs like that.

Taking Care of Pets and Allergy Testing

Now, let's pause for a moment to take care of Eddie, our furry family member. He is due for his one-year-old puppy shots and allergy testing. As pet owners, it's essential to prioritize their health and well-being. Allergies can be challenging for pets, but getting the necessary tests done will help us address any issues he may have.

Family Milestones: Senior Pictures and Birthdays

Speaking of milestone moments, my son, Little Bran, will be having his senior pictures taken soon. It's hard to believe how fast he's grown up. It feels like just yesterday he was a little boy, and now he's about to embark on his senior year. As a parent, seeing your child reach these milestones can be bittersweet, but it's also a proud moment.

Excitement and Emotion of Upcoming Events

I am excited and a little emotional thinking about Little Bran's senior year and how quickly time has flown by. It also reminds me of the songs that were popular during my own senior year. I can't help but feel a mix of emotions. I'm sure many of you can relate to this feeling when you see your children grow up. They will always be our babies, no matter how old they become.

Craft Project: Creating a Shadow Box Frame

Now, let's focus on the craft project at hand. We will be creating a shadow box frame for Little Bran's senior pictures. I decided to paint the frame white to make it stand out. Originally, I thought of using green and gold, but the available green paint doesn't match the school colors. Instead, I will stick with classic black and white.

Conclusion

In conclusion, today has been a day full of preparations, emotions, and craft projects. From Eddie's doctor visit to my niece's birthday party, there is never a dull moment. It's essential to cherish these milestones and moments with our loved ones. Craft projects, like the shadow box frame, allow us to preserve these memories and create something beautiful. Remember to appreciate the songs that bring back memories, even if their meanings are unexpected. As we go through life's Journey, let's embrace the joy, the challenges, and the small moments that make it all worthwhile.
