Oh no problem Christy. I was trying to get all my ducks in a row by the end of this week. I have to concentrate on graduation for the next two months. I have a lot of scrapbooking and such to do for my youngest sons graduation. Then my nest will be empty and I will have more time on my hands. I have been a stay at home homeschooling Mom for years so this will be quiet an adjustment for me! Thankfully I have a 10 month old Grandson who lives around the corner from me that I get to see often!

I already have my bookmarks in various stages of completion for the next several months so I will still be doing this swap!
