These logomachy cards I got from
Mary are just WAY too much fun. Especially since I figured out how to do some digi collage stuff with Picassa.
See what I mean?
I just wish Picassa had a few more options for borders or framing, and fading, because I can't find any there. Picnik has some, but I already waste too much time just messing with one, let alone going back and forth from one site to another editing and re-editing, loading and exporting pictures from site to site!
It would probably be quicker for me to draw and scan it myself. But honestly, I really, really should be doing something more productive with my time anyway. Its too easy to get sucked into playing with pictures, when I have lots of things waiting to be done. But I always love looking at pictures of Sugarwings.
Sunday is my little fairy grand baby's THIRD birthday. We'll be at the airport in Charlotte at 4 am so we can get home in time to have cake with her that day.
This photo is from her one year birthday party.
And here she is the day she came home from the hospital.
She looks so tiny in the bed that I painted for her.
Her hippy parents spent time creating special things for her home coming too. Her Daddy tie dyed this blanket just for her, so she'd get a creative start to her new life.
And now, we are (hopefully) enrolling her in a Waldorf
school to continue nurturing her imagination and stimulating her mind just as her parents have done from her very first days. The papers are filled out and are being turned in tomorrow, if all goes well, she'll start preschool in a couple of weeks.
This photo is from her 2nd birthday party. It seems just like yesterday that she was a toddler… and now preschool??? I think this is going to be much harder for me than for her parents. It will not be easy to see her go off to school. But, I know that it is the best for her. She'll benefit from having a consistent schedule, and social time with other kids.
I already miss her, just thinking about it.
She is so gorgeous! She will LOVE school, but I know you will miss having her around so much.

Happy Birthday to your sweet little Sugarwings!!!
Happy Birthday to your little one! Wonderful photos — I know she’ll love preschool, and you’ll love hearing the stories!
Karla I know for sure that we are all going to miss Sugarwings here, my daughter and I will certainly do. I read the link and it seems to me that the Waldorf education is such a good choice for her. Here we have Rudolf Steiner education too, but unfortunately I couldn’t choose it for my kids as there were no possibilities to combine it with daycare at the 2 days I went to work when they were little. In the end it was hard to combine anyway so I had to quit working, but then they were attending another school. Now my daughter is in highschool were she does a theatre education at the same time, singing, dancing, drama and decorating and this is sooo good for her. This part of education makes everything at school more fun. I think Sugarwings will like it up there, but I do hope we will see her here sometimes too.
Happy 3rd birthday to Sugarwings and a great party to all!
Happy Birthday to lovely Sugarwings!!
Sweet pictures and I’m sure that you cannot
wait to be back home to celebrate her
special day.
Karla, I love the sweet book that you
have created. I hope that you will be
selling these. : )
Hugs and Birthday Hugs to Sugarwings,
Janis
She is such a sweetheart. I just want to hug her. I will be welcoming my four-year-olds to school in another week!
Blessings,

Happy Birthday to the special little lady. I just have one question? How did she grow up so fast. I have watched her grow through your blog and she gets more beautiful every day.
Happy Birthday to your sweet little Sugarwings!!!
Very sweet pictures of your little grandfairy! Little ones always grow up so fast!
Happy Birthday to Sugar Wings! What a precious little girl! She will love pre-school and it will be such fun to watch her make friends and learn new things. Good luck to you too, Karla. It’s so hard to let go and embrace change. Yuck!
Happy Birthday to a sweet young lady! Miss Sugarwings is certainly adorable and getting even more lovely each day. She will have so much to share with you when she goes to preschool. Wishing all of you a great birthday….
Sandy
Happy Birthday Sugar Wings!!!
Wishing Sugar Wings a very Happy Birthday! She will love school, but going back to Grandma’s will always be the best!
That Waldorf program sounds wonderful! Happy Birthday Sugarwings!
Happy Birthday sweet Sugarwings. I hope your day is full of love, happiness and all things magical.
Hugs Karen
Hope you all have a grand celebration with Sugar Wings!!
Happy Birthday to your sweet little Sugarwings! She is SUCH a doll! It doesn’t seem possible that she’s off to pre-school already. sigh
Happy Birthday to Sugarwings! I do sympathise with you about her going to pre-school. My little Hattie Jane has a year and half to go till shell be doing that.As maybe I have said I babysit her 3 and 4 days a wk. I will be taking her to a music class this fall but will be with her. Cant imagine how they will teach her at this age. But Im very close to her and she with me. By the way I love her bed you painted. I have table and chairs waiting to figure out how Im going to paint for her. Just think of all the fun things she will tell you about her school. Wishing you well..Sally
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, Sugarwings!

awwww! Happy Birthday Sugarwings!!! She is such a Beautiful little girl! Gosh, those big blue eyes, I bet she gets whatever she wants, whenever she wants, haha!!! How could you resist that precious little face! The pictures of her on her first day home are so sweet! I love that her parents made tie dyed things for her, cute! Her crib was beautiful! I can imagine it will be hard to let her go to school, off to learn about the great big world on her own. They grow too fast! Enjoy the birthday cake!
Happy Birthday to the little beauty queen. What a glorious start she has had in this world. Nothing will hold her back. It was fun to see her baby pics. She does look little.
Happy Birthday Sugarwings! She will have so much fun at school. How time flies by.

Happy birthday little fairy baby~ What a doll Karla, I can see why you have so much fun with that baby!
Sugarwings is going to Preschool. Oh no, the day finally came. I am so sorry for you. She will love preschool you know. You have done quite well to prepare her. You on the other hand I am not sure of! I hope I have at least one more year before I have to face the hurdle with my Noah! I will say a prayer for you Grandma! Martha

I have been so busy with back to school that I forgot to pop in and wish Sugar Wings a Happy 3rd Birthday! Time will just fly from here on out. Sometimes I wish I could just freeze time and soak up every moment of my little ones. She will have a great time at preschool, I wish I was able to afford a waldorf school for Gina.
you will be ok!!! you can always go to school and ‘help’ out some days! Rachaelxo
sweetie
And she gets sweeter with each birthday!
