I'm Officially The Best Mom Ever, You Can Hold Your Applause

For the first time since my last law grade trickled in, I did something that resulted in a final product and some instant gratification. I MADE Jacob's Christmas stocking!! It only took three days. I followed the instructions on this site: http://www.associatedcontent.com/article/428393/how_to_make_your_own_decorative_christmas.html?cat=74

Then I appliqued fabric to the front to make a fun snowman! Completing this one craft project has given me the ego and confidence to run for President of the United States (ok, maybe just of the local 4-H group). Today I mended applique stockings...tomorrow, the economy/deficit/international relations/health care system/environment!

Shhh, Don't tell Jacob that his "J" is off center. He hasn't noticed yet.

Offically Best Mom Ever. Makes my store bought red stocking that I painstakingingly glitter glued look kinda sad.

I am in awe, Madam President.

ALL HAIL TO THE STOCKING QUEEN, the rest of us peons are simply not worthy- :)
Honestly, can you hold a class on how you had time to even make the stocking in the first place. Good Job!
