I am so Spoiled!


Look what my aunt made for our baby's room! I sent her the material and she made the bumper, crib ruffle, and basket liners! They are so beautiful! I cannot sew and actually a sew machine may be considered a weapon with me. I will be doomed to getting hurt for sure. My Aunt Dottie makes my boys' Halloween costumes- what ever concoction they come up with. It is never an easy to follow the pattern costume. I just love the home made stuff- they always seem better. I hope to enlist her to help make cute dresses for my daughter. Thank so much, Aunt Dottie! You are really terrific for doing this for me!

Splish! Splash!



I belong to a secret pal exchange group for those of us waiting to travel to China. These people are from all over US & Canada. I received my first surprise package earlier this week. Isn't it cute! The theme was "bath". I love the trim colors. Whoever she is, thank you!

Patience



Here is alittle self pep talk...

The strongest of all warriors are these two: Time and Patience.

He that can have patience can have what he will.- Benjamin Franklin

Patience is power; with time and patience the mulberry leaf becomes silk.- A Chinese Proverb

The key to everything is patience. You get the chicken by hatching the egg,
not by smashing it.
