Thanks so much for stopping by!
I just finished a x-stitch project I have been working on for 2 years. I am so excited to be done with it. What is your sampler going to be about? Happy birthday a bit early. I hope you have a great day, you and your son.
ReplyDeleteIt is a sampler that says Beauty is God's Handwriting. I will have to post a picture soon. Thanks for the birthday wishes :)
DeleteHello...I'm visiting from over at Peggy's. I wanted to tell you that I love the way you organize your home by days! I am going to take that to heart because seeing that written out really would help in seeing goals met! And I am glad your daughter is coming home. We are going to visit our daughter this weekend. She's about 4 hours away from us and it has been a couple of months since we've seen her and the family. It will be wonderful to spend time with them.
ReplyDeleteScheduling out my days helps me stay on track. Enjoy your visit with your daughter :)
DeleteI always love to see your menus, they always sound delicious.
ReplyDeleteLove your "Pondering of Words"
Also...Happy Early Birthday to you, I had one a couple of weeks ago. Gosh, the years just keep flying by to quickly for sure!
