I love this.

The sight of beautiful, bright fabric and the million ideas that go wizzing around in my head.   So many ideas, so little time.  'Tis the life of a stay at home mommy of four kiddos, eh? In the mean time, I will spend my day loving the Lord, loving my kids, and praying for the grace to keep everyone in my household changed, fed, and in one piece.  And maybe squeeze a little sewing in the quiet moments.

Baby H gave me a 7 hour stretch of sleep last night.  What a blessing! And boy did I need it.  Looks like he's starting to kick this cold. And not a moment too soon, I'll tell ya.  The other kiddos slept well too, overall. Ash may or may not keep peeing in his bed though.   And sometimes, we may or may not put a towel over the wet sheet and tell him to go back to bed.  Hey, we change his pants. Thats gotta be worth somethin.

For Christmas cards this year for a few of my friends, I went a little less traditional and skipped the red, green and white theme. Check out this cute card! So easy too: just some card stock, buttons and thread. The stems were a free printable I found somewhere on the intranets, but you could easily just draw those on!

And for your viewing pleasure, I present to you, Ash in a bag.
