As I was diligently doing school with the others and NOT neglecting the little ones, by any means...I heard, "Mom....look!"...
"Good, job Sweet Heart, could you climb down like a good little monkey now?"

And, here is a sweet moment with my daughter...I didn't say one bad word...I promise....

however, Caresse loves to sew!

Here is her beautiful quilt that I helped with only because she has been "pestering", well, "begging", OK, she may have had a tiny tear in her eye....ANYWAY,
I did my part to help with this beautiful quilt that SHE LOVES.

  1. What a beautiful quilt your daughter made! How ever did you teach her to do that? I'm lucky to sew buttons back onto my clothing!

  4. A bit jealous ... 5 years of the beans and rice diet and I don't think I lost a pound :) Your family, simply precious. You continue to encourage me.

  5. I too do not really enjoy sewing, but had a daughter who did and really enjoyed it. It was worth every moment I spent with her. Missing those moments as now that she is in college we are like ships passing in the night at times!

    Thanks for the journaling idea. My little ones love collecting bugs. Guess we will start drawing pictures of them too!

  10. Wow. That's all I can say. I know you are not fishing for compliments but I have to say you a true proverbs 31 woman! If I only I could close! I LOVE the quilt and the picture of you and Aiden is precious. I want to try the apple skillet. My husband would die!
