Perspective

These are certainly not the snow days of last year but we have gotten enough to say that it has 'snowed'. The kids enjoy getting the most out of every dusting that we have received this winter though their snow gear has definately NOT seen the action of last winter. I for one am very thankful for the change in seasons that we are blessed with here in the northeast. This cold change gives the time for busy moms to sit and read more to little ones, begin teaching new crafts, finishing up on long planed out projects and take a new look at the world. Enjoy the new look that winter gives or take a step back and look anew, it helps keep our perspective on things that have REAL value!

"Jammies"

There has been a shocking lack of photos taken in the past few months. 

Yet there has been a goodly amount of creativity oozing from various corners of the house!

For holidays we try to put in a little something that is handmade and as we are now in the colder north some cozy "jammies" seemed in order. If one is going to be making "jammies" for four siblings then how much more fun to have them be matching;-) It has been some years since I have attempted to make clothing so this task was done in collaboration with my Mum. The results are being enjoyed very much by the kids. 

It has been some time since posting and there are seasons in life when that needs to be. I do know that there are those of you who are yet very far away and do "check-in" now and again so we will try to keep up posting.
