Today is my sweet husband’s birthday. Earlier today, I took some pictures with Jessica telling Daddy happy birthday. I didn’t think I’d have time to actually post it, because I was trying to finish making the card for him, but she is taking a super long afternoon nap, so here it is.
Happy Birthday Daddy!
James is the best husband and daddy and I wanted to make him a super special card and I think it turned out fabulous. A gift on the other hand. I didn’t get him one. Yet? We’re not really big on exchanging gifts for our birthdays. I never know what to get him and he knows I just get myself gifts every time I get something new crafty-wise. Although, I do have a framed picture of Jessica for him to take to work. I guess that is a gift.

What a cute way for Jessica to tell her Daddy Happy Birthday. Love her smile. Jennifer, you did a great job with James’s birthday card. I like the colors and of course elephants are one of my favorite animals. We think James is a really special son.

Oops !! I looked again and I am not so sure that is an elephant. Sorry about that. I like it and I am sure James liked it very much.
Mom
Yeah, Birthday Morris is a moose.
