On a Roll with Fleece

R has been making fleece blankets for lots of family members the past few months. They've all turned out so cute and are well-loved. This particular blanket took some extra effort, and lots of extra fabric. Cousin M is very tall and long-legged, so he has trouble finding a blanket long enough to cover him from head to toes. Well, this warm cammo blanket R made for him will do the trick. It is long enough that he can wrap up in it and even keep his toes warm. Doesn't he look pleased?

I Know Who Holds Tomorrow

by Ira Stanphill

I don't know about tomorrow,
I just live from day to day;
I don't borrow from its sunshine,
For its skies may turn to gray;
I don't worry o'er the future,
For I know what Jesus said,
And today I'll walk beside Him,
For he knows what is ahead.


Many things about tomorrow
I don't seem to understand;
But I know who holds tomorrow,
And I know who holds my hand.


I don't know about tomorrow,
It may bring me poverty;
But the one who feeds the sparrow
Is the one who stands by me;
And the path that be my portion,
May be thru the flame or flood,
But His presence goes before me,
And I'm covered with His blood.

Many things about tomorrow

I don't seem to understand;

But I know who holds tomorrow,

And I know who holds my hand.

Dress Up Shoes

Oh, the cuteness! I love the sound of Baby S clomping around in her plastic dress up heels. She walks like a champ in them, and really loves dressing up with hats and bows and purses. Such a very fun age!

How about twenty in twenty-seven?

I didn't make my deadline for the Twenty in Twenty Challenge to de-clutter our home and share things we no longer need. But, I did finally get my twentieth bag tossed today! Yay! And thanks to my family for pitching in where asked and for giving generously to the donation center.

I'm pretty burned out on sorting and purging for now, so I'm taking a break to enjoy the empty spaces we found. We may still try to tackle our big barn/garage before the weather warms up too much, and I know that big job will be rewarding when we accomplish it.

Kudos to those of you who joined me in the Twenty in Twenty Challenge. Now, doesn't that feel better?

Our Guitar Star!

HA had a great performance this week in his very first classical guitar recital. We are so proud of his rousing rendition of Lightly Row. Great job, HA!
