A Dress and a Story…..
Hannie had a part in our Children's Primary Program at church singing with a small choir yesterday. She was so excited about it and a couple of weeks ago she and I talked about making a new dress for the program.

Yesterday I shared a story over on our Facebook page about my melt down last week.... I had finally put out a rug that I had been saving since Christmas last year and in less than 24 hours my oldest child had spilled chocolate pudding all over it. Between the ruined new rug and everything else that had been going on and was coming up that week (a family funeral, viewing, luncheon, Halloween, making costumes, meetings, deadlines, obligations, etc.) it was more than I could handle and I turned ...
