Empty nest again!

I will eventually post some more pictures of my trip to Galax and Nashville but for now I wanted to add a few of my son Josh. He left for college in Vermont again today and it never ceases to amaze me how a little piece of my heart is broken every time he leaves. Each trip home seems shorter and shorter and I find myself wishing that he had chosen a school that was closer or never gone to college at all! I think that is the problem sometimes, only having one child, that it is so much more difficult to let go. But he arrived there safely tonight after his 9 hour drive and is happy to be back with his friends. I hope that this will be the best semester ever for him and I can't wait to see him again in the fall.
And to all you mum's out there who are feeling a little bit teary like me, just remember - you are not alone.

Hoping everyone has a great week ahead ~ Anji XxX

Some Freebies for you

I have had a lot of spare time on my hands over the last 5 days due to the blizzard of 2010 (the new official name for the snow storm we have just had!) and have not been able to get out of the house. It gave me a chance to go through the numerous old photos I have been collecting forever an I thought I would share some with you. Please feel free to use them in your artwork or for anything else. I would love to see what you do with them!

I'll post some more tomorrow.

P.S. If anyone has a tip on uploading more than one picture at a time could you please let me know. I have tried to do it so many times and it never works - thanks!
