I finished the sweater I was knitting for my boys (ages 9 & 7…they were the same size). It fits my two year old daughter. Actually the sleeves fit the boys and the rest fits the two year old. I measured the sleeves to make sure they were long enough. I don’t know why I didn’t check the length. It never crossed my mind until I was almost done and thought “Hmmm. I wonder if this will be long enough”. Oh well. At least I have another child to wear it. She loves wearing her brothers’ clothes anyway.
I started the sweater I am knitting for myself. I learned a few things with the other sweater so I’m not afraid of attacking this one. I’m actually excited. I worked and worked on the gauge this morning so now I am ready to start knitting the sweater. I wouldn’t even mess with the gauge if it weren’t so important and I want to actually wear the sweater when I am done.
K came over for tea this morning and learned how to knit! Yea! I have another knitting buddy. It’s great getting together with everyone to knit and then move. Yea! Go me!
M called this morning with a question about something Pastor said Sunday. I convinced her to email him to get clarification…then let me know what he said. I figure if she has the question then she should ask him. M also mentioned she was still new to Christianity…if she’s new to this then what am I? I think she is so much more than I am.
I’ve been packing what I don’t need for the next couple of months. I’m not looking forward to moving and unpacking. I just wish I could wriggle my nose and POOF! everything is where it’s supposed to be and the clutter is gone. Boy, wouldn’t that be nice.
Today’s post has been brought to you by a woman who wants to be knitting and needs ideas for writing.

I have always wanted to learn to knit and crochet. I want to make things for my babies. I am excited for you for taking it up.
I am sad to hear that you guys are moving. Mustang is pretty nice- One of my biological mom’s best friends lives there and we go visit her occasionally. I also know a great dentist there- Marcia Tarter (Yes, I know). She is one of my college friends. You met her and her husband and 2 year old daughter at my wedding to Ray.
I haven’t been good at all about keeping in touch, but that means nothing about how I feel about you. I miss you now, but I’ll miss you so much more when you go. I hope we will keep in touch.
You have been a great friend and I love you.
