I had insomnia pretty bad when I was a kid, so she'd stay up all night with me and each night we had a different craft to work on. I don't know where she came up with all of them, but looking back I don't think there's anything we didn't try. I was probably the only 8 year old in the county with a professional wood burning kit :)Gretchen Stullhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12708859324608153048noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2437528653621342951.post-34868436553601517342010-05-30T17:48:18.494-05:002010-05-30T17:48:18.494-05:00Wow!
