Handprints


Sometimes you get discouragedBecause I am so small,

And always leave my fingerprintsOn furniture and walls.

But everyday I am growing,-I'll be grown up someday,

And all these tiny handprintsWill simply fade away.

So here's a final handprint,

Just so you can recall,

Exactly how my fingers looked

When I was very small.

Yesterday we spent almost the whole day getting the kids handprints done. I have handprints and feetprints of Amy's kids since they were a few days old. But I have never gotten Myles and Grace's. So yesterday I went to a pottery show and had me a large platter done with all five kids, and a flowerpot and a mug with only Myles and Grace. They are 6 and 5 but at least I'll have something to smile back on. Can't wait to get them and display them.

I was very tired when I got home, drove to B'ham to Gadsden and back home, about three hours of driving and I don't like to drive. Makes me very sleepy. I have a bad reputation for driving for some reason. No wrecks, no tickets, just falling asleep! Go figure.

Well half the day has gone already and I need to go sew something. Maybe something wonderful will happen that I can post about later today.

Children are a blessing from God, ALL CHILDREN!

God's Colors










Nothing has gone right today starting with getting up entirely too early. And now I cannot get a playlist to work on my page. I think I will go back to bed and start over tomorrow!
So I leave you with these beautiful pictures that tell me God loves me!

good night :-)

the much loved Chocolate Chip Brownie












Well I have not only had the wonderful joy of entertaining these three kiddoes all weekend but also the little Chocolate Chip Brownie, as they have so aptly named him. Jacob says he will be called Chipper though. They sure do love him. He is the cutest thing, especially when he runs after one of them. At one time he had Caleb by the leg of his pants and wouldn't let go until Katie went over a took him off. So funny.


I am exhausted to say the least so I am going to take the hottest shower I can and go to bed. I have to go to the kiddoes house tomorrow as Amy has to work the book fair at Jacob's school.


Jason and a friend came over for lunch. She brought her nine month old baby boy. So cute. Jason didn't have his little ones this weekend so we didn't get to see them.


A good day, except for no Myles or Grace.
