Great Day!

I cannot begin to tell you what a great day we had, as you can see Chelsea looks great. She is adjusting to her new life and learning so much. Her day begins at 5am and they have breakfast, deep clean the house and maintain the grounds. They have school and then they clean warehouses, bathrooms, run carwashes and give bread away to the needy people in the area. We met amazing families today who share our story, this was so helpful to meet people in such a family atmosphere and all share a bond. We are so excited for Chelsea and her new outlook on life.

Missing U!

This has felt like a very long week. Coming home everyday and my sweet doggie not waiting to see me waggin her tail! I am lost with out her. She followed me everywhere. I am starting to feel like a dark cloud is hanging over my head.

Valentines

My beautiful Valentines arrangement, We were both very sad with the loss of Chloe but he still gave me a beautiful valentines card and arrangement.

Good Bye My Sweet Friend

I had to say goodbye this morning to my very best friend, My heart is broken. But she became very ill and it was for the best. Goodbye my friend, I will miss you so very much.

My precious little grandson! First date!

My precious grandson on his first playdate! Just like his dad with his arm around the girl first date!

Little Tommy!

I know I sound like a braggin grandmother but he is just adorable!! He is wearing the hat I made him! Look at those blue eyes!!

So thankful

I am so very thankful to all of you who have stood by me and supported me at this time. Words cannot express how I feel, those of you who, texted me, called me, wrote to me, stopped by, and the hugs at work. That is what has helped me get through. The stories and helpful advice. Thank you. We are so very grateful that we were able to put her in to the school she now attends. I am hoping now is the time we all move forward and put this 3 year nightmare behind us.
And now on to some projects. Above is a photo of another WIP, a baby blanket for charity. One of my favorite patterns that can be found at the project Linus web site!
Also a table runner I am working on. My mom and I were able to contruct one in a day when she was visiting, and Yes I cut up Longaberger fabric! Working on my next table runner which is botanical gardens!

He's still got it!

Did you see that game! WOW did you see the halftime show? Simply amazing. He is still the boss, he still has it an never looked better! I miss my home state of NJ, and my Glory days!

Pluggin along!

Been very sick with flu bug this last week, I am very run down like I have never been before. Just a few pictures of hats I made for my boys at Christmas, JR and Baby Tommy and a scarf I am making for my friend Beth who, has been for me more than I could imagine someone would be there for someone and I dont know why. I am so very grateful to her and she deserves more than this scarf but at this time its all I can give. I have so many good friends and family that have been there for me during this time, I thank god everyday for each and everyone of you and hope I can be there for you as well someday. As always images are clickable so you can get a closer look!
