Reactions

The birthday girl the other day LOVED her gifts – handmade and store bought. Her Mom loved them even more, the diary book that Alice made was a huge hit! The girl is coming to stay overnight in a couple of weeks so I imagine the kids will want to do lots of crafting together. I knew I was being paranoid about her reaction…

I have at least six started projects – and only one finished! It seems my craft stashing isn’t going as well as I thought, usually I am great about already having the materials available but lately I’ve been having to make a list and pick up something here or there. I ran out of fusible webbing for a cork board project, white yarn for a baby blanket and double sided tape for a card project. It seems to work out better to figure what I need then run out and get it – rather then starting and having to stop, doing that just disappoints the kids! The baby blanket that I was making for our new baby has been changed into a gift for one of my nephews, it was going to have to be made anyway as that’s my plan for Christmas gifts, and I suppose sooner is better then later.

We are having more baby issues – and it has me emotionally exhausted. I wish I didn’t have to wait so long for my next appointment as I want answers now. I spent today cleaning, crying, praying and doing nothing. I suppose that’s normal.
