dear crochet



dear crochet,

i sure do like you and your many colorful yarns but i am taking a small break from you.
just until may when my sewing class ends
then i will see you every monday night
i promise

p.s. single stitch i like you the best so far
don't tell double stitch....
and an example of you is the long colorful piece below the magazine

snow in texas in march



"Do not spoil what you have by desiring what you have not; but remember that what you now have was once among the things only hoped for. "
~Epicurus ~

right now we have lots and lots of snow
time to call my mum(s) and tell her!
i hope brock and my future children will always call me when they see snow wherever they are and no matter how old they are......


these pics were taken this morning

the best present is family




brock got very special presents this year
he got an elmo laptop
some nice clothes and alligator socks
a wonderfully special ornament
some bath toys
a book about a very special bunny
a slide
a fever-major bummer.....
but the best present was getting the same card 3 times-
from gigi, chloe and aunt roxy
whoa it was awesome
brock is so lucky to have people loving him, believing in him, teaching him and supporting him no matter where they live
and they get the whole elmo thing too!
