children's visits

so son#2 called the other day, asking if he & girlfriend could come stay the weekend with us, i told him, "sorry both bedrooms are already reserved for those nights!" he said 'oh, by who?' i told him his nephew was comming and staying in one room, and his aunt n uncle were also comming and staying in the other room. i do believe i heard dissappointment in his voice. so we worked it out for the 2 of them to come for just one night, which works out well all around. its funny how sometimes our children think we have no life when they are gone, and we are just waiting for them to come n visit. i love my children, and i love when they do come to visit, don't get me wrong! i just thought it was funny!

slow start

so here it is almost 9 months later, and i am finally posting my second instalment!
 i wanted a way to share my accomplishments with others of like interests and i thought a blog was the best way to accomplish that.
i went to beautiful Ariel Washington the other day, to hear a friend speak at a tea. She was fabulous, and i met a Cheryl, Jean, Sara n Katie, 3 generations of women in one family. Katie was about 17 years, and was very proud of the dress she was wearing, as she had sewn it herself, with help from Cheryl(gramma). i wished i had some way to show her my sewist endeavors, to give her encouragement, but i was not wearing a single thing i had sewn! what a shame i felt. so i decided it was time indeed, to begin BLOGGING!! so here we go, i will add pics of my accomplishments, give detailed descriptions of what i've done, and hope you like it enough to return often!
just so you know, i'm not a fan of capitalization, so i seldom do it.
