Yesterday, my friend Inge stopped by and gave me one of the most beautiful gifts ever: an oil painting she made of my Mother as a young girl. Is she not an amazing artist? God has blessed me when he gave me Inge as a friend, that’s for sure. My mother has always been an … [View Details]

It’s great to home educate

We are back to homeschooling. This time, though, Kristy and I share the teaching. Kristy does Mon, Wed, and Fridays. I do Tues and Thursdays. Here is a picture that shows one of the advantages of homeschooling: Saarah surrounded by her beloved stuffed toys. She is a joy to teach. Like a sponge that wants … [View Details]

Joy and Sorrow of Life
(4)
Have you been wondering what happened to me? I think our last few weeks could be summarized with the statement that “life happened”. It is with deep sorrow that I write about the death of my Father-in-Law, Earl P. Tocknell. Greatgrandpa was 91 yrs old when he died September 24th, surrounded by family members. Greatgrandpa … [View Details]
Just a little update

Wish I could say that cowboy number two was done, but that little fellow is still in the making. He is going to be so cute, sitting on a rock, playing the banjo. I kept busy today getting my next free design together. Since I manually digitize all of my designs (no autodigitizing here) and … [View Details]

Kitty Fun continues

This is probably my favorite kitty out of my recent digitizing. Eliana LOVES her new kitty sweatshirt and I think the photo where she looks down at the kitty and the kitty seems to look up at her is precious. See those bangs on Eliana? Well…. she didn’t have those last week! Her brother decided … [View Details]

Our single daughter and her three children have been living with us while our daughter, Kristy, attended nursing school. Now that she is a RN (hooray!), she has bought a home close to us and moved about two weeks ago. It has been an unsettling experience for all 3 children, but especially Siddiq, our Aspie … [View Details]
