The Mission - MOC 4

Description
About my youngest daughter at age 8 and her career aspiration to be a CIA agent. It feels good to pull this out of the "to be scrapped" file, since it was journaled a year ago!

Journaling reads:
At an age when most of your friends want to be a teacher or a mommy, you’ve set your sights on being a CIA agent in a very determined way. I am honestly not sure where you got the idea, whether it was from a movie like Spy Kids or something you’ve read, but I am proud that you have the confidence to choose a unique and challenging career option. You’ve even done some research about the requirements for agents, including exploring some different agencies like the FBI and Homeland Security. You’ve mentioned more than once how CIA agents have to be smart and get good grades. It’s fascinating that you’ve already considered how your school work might impact your long range plans. You seem to really love the idea of learning foreign languages and being undercover in some far-flung country. While it’s a tiny bit scary to think of my little girl in such a dangerous job, I have no doubt that your intelligence, intuition and determination would keep you safe. As I am writing this, I am wondering if you will look back at this and laugh at your childhood dream someday or will you say that you always knew you’d make a great CIA agent?! Journaled 1-13-15

that last line of your journaling! perfection. i love it this is just incredible & so happy to see you find time to create a page! it's amazing. (my son want to be in the navy and drive a tank. i know how you feel and i'm secretly hoping something else comes along to steer him perhaps down a slightly different road!)
 
That's fascinating, Laura! You hear time and again of people who knew from the time they were small what they wanted to do with their lives. Wish that had been me, I'm still trying to figure out what I want to do when I grow up. Oh wait, I just found it, I was born to serve the Lilypad!
 
This is perfect. Love your journaling and that your daughter has these aspirations. Love the stitching and all the super spy elements.
 
Well isn't this about the sweetest thing ever!! No matter what career path Julia chooses, I am certain that she will be thrilled to have this memory to look back on years from now. You rocked this challenge!!
 
This is SO awesome! I love her determination and that you scrapped this in such a beautiful way!! Looooove!
