Today is a day of remembering the loss of loved ones, but it is also a day to celebrate the gift of life and it’s little blessings.
I would like to introduce you to 2 of my little blessings……
McKayla and Aidan are the recipients of my end of summer knitting and sewing.
It’s hard to believe that McKayla is now a big 4th grader and Aidan is in kindergarten….yikes! Time does have a way of moving on, doesn’t it?
They are great kids and while McKayla is always a little lady, her brother can be quite the handful at times.
Getting him to sit still long enough to get a picture of his socks was no easy feat (no pun intended)…..just ask his Mum.
I have to admit, little mischievous boys always make me chuckle because they remind me very much of my own son at that age. Much much easier when you are their grandmother though….LOL.
I think he likes his little back pack………………….
….and I know Mckayla loves her new skirt and backpack too.

Sometimes we get so busy with our lives we forget to stop for a moment and think of the little blessings that we are fortunate to have. I hope on this day, you take a few minutes as well.





Beautiful grand children and lovely projects. Well done.

We have an Aidan, too! He’s seven, in second grade already….how’d that happen? Happy Birthday again…wasn’t sure last night that I’d have time today. (Off to Baltimore to see the youngest “blessing”, Gus, who at 16 months dialed 911 yesterday and brought three police cars to the house.)
