This is serious...I crafted today.  I am so far out of my comfort zone, I'm not even sure that "crafted" is what I am supposed to say. 

When Chief was deployed we kept a clock in the kitchen set to his local time.  We called it "Daddy Time" the boys asked me 10 times a day (at least) "what time is it where daddy is?"  It was a a way to keep us thinking about daddy (like we needed any help!), a way to be connected to him, and also a teaching tool.  That's how L learned to read the time... 

We decided to always keep that clock set to whatever time it is where he is.  "Daddy Time" has been the same as ours for several months now!  But  more trips will come, and more time zones...so I expect the clock will get a lot of use.

I wanted to designate the clock in some way, so I made a plaque-like thing.

A very crafty friend of mine had talked about this project.  But being too lazy to actually go and look at the instructions again, I just did what I remembered.  This was quick and easy, and most importantly...not messy.

I can't wait to get this hung above the clock.
