Winter

It's cold everywhere!  But here in Northeastern Oklahoma we made it into the 40’s today.  Our weather never seems to stick around for more than a few days at a time.  So one day it's around 0* and the next day it can be 40*.  I've heard the term "bipolar" given to our weather.  

After a "break" to take car of my grand kids, have Christmas,have company, etc., I spent a couple of hours working at The Cotton Patch this afternoon.  It's always good to be back surrounded by beautiful fabric and new books.

For those who may be wondering, my daughter has finally recovered from her 2 surgeries, 3 hospitalizations and 2 near death experiences.  After almost 7 weeks she went back to work as her sister's office manager (photography business) on Friday.  I'm grateful for all the prayers and kind words offered on her behalf.

Since the weather was bad and school was cancelled yesterday I had the three boys here.  I took them out for haircuts (it was really cold but the roads were clear).  Two of the boys let me take their pictures.  The nearly 14 year old will no longer pose for me.

 

I didn't get to see this little cherub today but her mom sent me this picture of her.  I got her the outfit for Christmas.  I may have gotten her a few outfits for Christmas......and for other days, too.

She followed in her mom's footsteps and got her first tooth at 4 months.

I'm sewing on my Dresden plates.  Pictures soon.
