Somewhere in My Youth or Childhood...

How many grandmas have a grandson who throws his arms around you upon his arrival and whispers in your ear, "Can I vacuum?"  You have to love this boy.

All I can say about this is "Somewhere in my youth or childhood I must have done something good."  (Aaron if you are reading this, this quote is from "The Sound of Music" when the Captain & Maria are singing together.)

I love you Eliah!

You Need Your Girlfriends

I have been blessed with some wonderful friends over the years.  I know my journey would be much harder without them.  These women are my basketweaving buddies on our annual trip to Judy's Wisconsin cabin.  We connected about 20 years ago. I treasure the times we have spent eating, drinking, weaving,  laughing and crying together.     What a blessing it is to have women in your life you can count on.  Those Viking women of days gone by must have had girlfriends is all I can say.
