Day 118

Day 118:  Challenge your fears.


I do not like loose, wiggly teeth and unfortunately my son is at that age.
  Last night I was challenged by the 7 year old to pull his tooth out. 
 I pulled, couldn't do it, pull, ahhhhhhh....finally the tooth came out. 
I am the tooth slayer, hear me ROAR!! ha ha 
 I won't be doing that again!

Day 101

Day 101:  This was a fun day because the challenge was to ask a friend to suggest a creative project.


I asked my friend Debbie what she would like to challenge me with and she pondered for quite some time.  Then it hit her, she wanted me to make her a fortune teller.  Come on ladies, remember the time of innocence when choosing a color and number told you who you were to marry and how many kids you were having.  What fun!!
Oh, the sound you are hearing in the background is one of a happy child on a swing.
(Sorry, I filmed it sideways.)
