Hats

Fall time, a time to start making hats, and scarves, whatever gets me going. Right now I'm starting a quilt. Let's hope it turns out beautiful and will be cherished by the little chubby one that gets it. Hmmm... Now which child would that be?
These hats I love and so do the boys. Well, at least one of 'em asks for his on a regular basis, the other just smiles when Mama puts it on his round little head.
A lady I've met at a couple of field trips for the boys was asking me about them for her sons, so I might start selling them... I love gifts made from the heart with a good pair of hands. Many of the things I treasure were created with this spirit.

Thanking God right now for our family's health and our closeness. Dh just started heading up our family Bible reading/devotions again. A little tradition we have is every night after prayers we each share what our favorite part of the day was and then thank Jesus out loud for it. The sweetness of it has just gotta make Him smile, just like Dh and I do every night seeing our little ones sleep.

Talk to you later.

Hair Today Gone Tomorrow

So, I opened my "barber shop" this weekend. The guys needed haircuts. My MIL has always cut Dh's hair. She taught me a couple of years ago and it has served me well. I love the sound of the clippers. Do you cut your family's hair, and if so, who taught you? I'd love to hear about your haircutting experiences or fiascoes! Lol!

Welcome Fall

It's here! It's here! Fall is blowing away all the leaves and

the squirrels are hiding their food for winter.

The kids and I went for a walk the other day and the sound of crunching leaves underfoot made me think of walking home from school when I was a little girl. Funny how time flies. You never believe that as a kid when adults tell you that, but it really does. Childhood really is fleeting. I am so glad I get to enjoy the really important things with the boys. Things like finding a really "good" rock, or the biggest red leaf on our walks to the library.
