A knitting blog that will invariably have stray pieces of my life woven in as well.

And I wanted yarn. HA!

I've got one of the best husbands around. We really are best friends, and would rather spend time with each other than with anyone else.
Mother's day ends up being kind of like another anniversary for us. It's a day to celebrate what our love for each other has created... our children. I'm daily grateful that God made me a mother. My children are my treasure.
I planted links to different yarn shops in hubby's favorites folder, hoping he'd get a sweater kit, or gift certificate for my Mother's day gift. I'm glad I didn't get what I asked for. Instead, he bought something I've always wanted, a string of pearls! (Real ones!)I'm smitten all over again!
This pic was taken on Mother's day. It's my favorite that we've taken in a long time.


Incidentally, I'm the opposite of an anorexic. I'm always thinking I'm skinnier than I am, then I'm shocked when I see a picture of myself and I look so chubby!

    Three cheers for you hubby! He obviously has good taste - he chose you and he chose pearls for you. :)

    What a great picture! You can definitely see in both your eyes how much you love each other! (and the pearls help, too!) By the way....I think you look great!

    You don't look chubby at all! The two of you look beautiful! (gifts too!)...by the way, I'm the same way, but I really am on the heavy side!
