WEEKENDING

Having a place to go - is a home. 
Having someone to love - is a family. 
Having both - is a blessing.

My weekend started Thursday

with the arrival of my favorite

person in the whole world.

We played, baked, colored,

read books, and more books,

me reading to her and her

reading to me. I watched

her write her name  and cut

out paper leaves without any

help. We gathered acorns to

'plant a forest' and had races

up and down the drive. I collected

as many hugs as I could and

when she left Friday afternoon

I cried.

 

Saturday was a very disappointing

trip to the thrift store and leaving

empty handed. I spent the

rest of the day knitting, knitting,

knitting. Except for the buttons

the Sunday Sweater I have been

working on is done! I am so

thrilled with how it turned out

and when it's done blocking

I will post pictures. The sweater

was a great pattern to knit

and I see myself cast on another

one soon.

 

Sunday has started off slow and

once again there are no plans

for the day, just letting the

moments flow. While the weather

outside is 86 degrees and humid,

tonight the temperatures are

suppose to be in the high 50's!

I know it won't last, but at least

for now I will enjoy weather that

actually feels like fall.

 

Joining with Amanda once again

for Weekending.
