it sure does fly by...

So life.. it has been *flying* by recently... we've almost finished up with all the government requirements so we're set to debut in August. We'll have some of the kits in Inspired Pages (kamloops, BC) within the next 3 weeks or so and get some feedback from the customers. We'll also be holding some exclusive classes there that showcase the kits and come with a few surprises!

In family news.. Ty's getting his molars in and it *hasn't* been pretty! Poor little guy only wants to be held by me, won't even go to Lance and just grinds his poor little gums together all day.

We did however hit up the water Park yesterday. The first day that it opened 30+ degrees.. man that water felt fabulous! It took him a little while to really get comfortable.. it is a rather shocking experience for someone who has never been to one. I took him out into the middle in a calm spot and crouched down to his level... only to get us both sprayed in the face with a blast of icy cold water... poor little guy didn't know what hit him! But within a minute or two he was taking off without me! The look on his face, just total complete JOY was something I really never want to forget. It was too wet to bring my camera, so I just have to hold it inside. I'm sure we'll be spending MANY days there this summer. The loops is getting hot!

Lance is working shifts now, and for 6 days is on 10:30-9pm which is a first for us.. It sucks not having him here for dinner so I've found myself pushing everything back (including Ty's bedtime) so that we can at least spend a few minutes all together!

I'm working during Ty's nap times, and as soon as he goes to sleep at night till I can't stand to look at the computer anymore. Its all going to be paying off soon though.. I had a few people close to me design the first few kits and have everything ordered for them so we can do a few test runs! I'm so very nervous/excited.. the kind that makes my stomach hurt.. when I think about how much I have riding on this.. not ever just monetarily.. but emotionally. We all want to succeed.. to be remembered right? And this is how I want to make it. So.. wish me luck, and design a kit and I'll be talking to you soon !

"Above all else it is about leaving a mark that I existed. I was there. I was hungry. I was defeated. I was happy. I was sad. I was in love. I was afraid. I was hopeful. I had an idea I had a good purpose and that's why I made works of Art.

*Isn't this just the best quote ever?
