My buddy Tracy will know what I’m talking about with the title of this post. It’s an inside joke. She was my homeschool swap buddy this month with the Homeschool Post. She’s in the middle of a move. She took time out of her chaos to mail my swap gift early! She’s a keeper!
My kids love the Homeschool Swap as much as I do. They know that mom is a pushover. I usually share my presents if there is enough to go around. This time, Morgan and Kaden both got some candy out of the deal – so THEY love Tracy, too!
Lookie what I got:
Blue beaded earrings (gorgeous)
Fancy silver and blue Air Force pen (THANK YOU to our armed forces!)
Better Homes & Gardens Magazine (always in style)
Dried blueberries (Mmmm!)
Wintergreen lifesaver mints (my son’s favorite)
Bat Man PEZ (Morgan’s favorite movie character of late)
Pretty sticky notes
“Friend Loves at All Times” mini plaque
She really packs her swap presents!
I’m mailing yours Monday, Tracy! Hope you love it as much as I love mine!

How was the Texas Home School Convention?? I just found out this evening that my brother in law was one of the youth speakers. He said he did a lot of teaching. After hearing about the convention from my brother in law, it makes us want to go down to Texas! I would have LOVED to hear Voddie Baucham speak.
Blessings!

I need to join in. Every time I see your post I am jealous of your cool stuff! I am such a slacker with mail I am afraid it would be a big fail for me, lol!
Still debating!
