Our oldest is turning nine………. BooooHoooo BooHooooooo Booohoooo I can’t believe how fast they grow.

For several nights, I tried to listen to Pride and Prejudice, Uncle Tom’s Cabin and Emma.

This was rather frightening, since most of my dreams consist of task related chores like grocery [...]

The socks are now finished for my sister. She has tiny feet (barely a five) and I was worried they would be too big, but they fit really good. They were supposed to be for Christmas, but since they’re the first ones I’ve made and full of practice marks (aka mistakes) I decided to go [...]
