My Red Hen: August 2011

The Chicken Coop

I am a paper crafter. I've been playing with paper, and cutting and pasting for many years now and I still just love it. I teach classes each month and would love to have you.

You can find me at MyRedHen.blogspot.com and on Pinterest

or email me at MyRedHen4@yahoo.com

I'd love to hear from you.

Every now and then I have some cards or little treats available for sale that may be seen here.
My blog also contains my personal posts. Ignore them if you like, but you may get a kick out of them. Maybe my girls will read them one day and get insights into the inner workings of an old woman's brain....Scary Thought!
There is a list of labels on the right side of the blog, so you can click there to go to only the posts that you are interested in. That will allow you to skip the personal posts and any items for sale if you wish. No matter which way you choose, I hope will enjoy my little blog and visit often.

PROUD---PROUD---PROUD!!

As I mentioned before, my Megan got a job as a first grade teacher at a private school in Las Vegas. She has been working hard to prepare her classroom and tonight was a Meet-n-Greet night to meet the parents of her students. She sent me pictures and I MUST share them. I am so very proud! What a great job she has done! The first day of school will be August 29th.
My baby is finally a teacher with her very own students and her very own classroom. Look out world, get ready for my baby girl! World's best teacher is on her way!

Dreams Do Come True

Just got the word this morning that a private school in Las Vegas has has hired my daughter Megan who is now on her way to becoming the world's best first grade teacher. She has actually been teaching since she had stuffed animals to turn into students and they will be cheering her on from wherever it is that long lost stuffed toys go. Her childhood friends became students as well, playing school--always school and Megan was ALWAYS the teacher. They will be thrilled to know that Megan has finally acquired a classroom of her very own and will be teaching real live students. As her mom, I am bursting with pride and will be cheering her on here from Reno. There are not words to say how happy I am for her. Is there anything better that watching your child's dreams come true. (Well yes--Better would be watching it happen from a much shorter distance, but that's about me--not her).

Megan--I am so proud of you and so happy for you.
You go girl!!!
