Quiet Afternoon and Flowers

, , , ,

I am having a relatively quiet afternoon with all the kids in school. Last week at this time I was in child pose on the bed, praying to God to take the pain away. Now, I can breathe a sigh of relief and sit comfortably at the computer. Thank God! I have not had the opportunity to express myself in writing in what feels like years, so this feels so good to reconnect.

During the rain storms this weekend, the power was knocked out in my twin's school! But another school agreed to take them in, afternoons from 1 to 5. I can't imagine what is being learned in 4 hours, but GOOD LUCK teachers! smile

It was nice having the twins at home with me this morning. We had turkey bacon, eggs and toast with strawberry jam. They played around a bit and then I helped Angela with her hair, and off they went. smile
It was so quiet and peaceful with them...they are some of the most wonderful children that I know...handed to me by an Angel.

Lately, I have been getting a ton of crochet stuff done..

These are crochet flowers that I found on youtube...Link

I am glad you finally can seat by the computer Sarah,
it seems to me
you have an amazing connection with your kids smile how beautiful !
yes they are blessings!
the flowers you made
look great!!
are they washable???
I am knitting a lap throw for my young these days ,
we call it " eplosion " since the colors she chose at "Michaels" are very bright!
Teens like either black or too bright lol

I hope you continue feeling well Sarah smile

Hi Sarah! It's been forever since I last came here, I was feeling a bit nostalgic and reading some of my old posts and figured I should come and see how you were *hugs* I've missed you so much!!! It seems you haven't been feeling too well lately, I hope you continue feeling better and better...

@Dennis, Thanks! Want instructions? bigsmile I bet you could whip up a mean flower. p

@Hermitess, Thank God for the meds. I think when everything went numb..that helped that most strangely. heart

@Carol, ty heart How's the grandbaby?

@Ellin, I love Michaels o. I would live there if I could! Yarn is cheaper at WalMart...but the good stuff is at Michaels. I shop at both depending on what I want the yarn for... I would love to see pictures of your throw. You are so right about the teens! p

@Star, Thanks heart Glad to hear from you.

@Allejandra, So good to see you! I have visited your blogspot blog wink Thanks for stopping by *big hugs*

I love o Michaels too!
unfortunately city regulations do not allow WalMart stores in Manhattan and the 4 boroughs sad
one has to travel to the suburbs to find a store but there is a "Michaels" in Long Island City btwn Manhattan and Queens,
the store has so beautiful things ,if I had the funds I was going to buy the f****ng thing and have an "All Friends Yarn Party" in it! lol

of course you and Casey will be invited too o
