Future Giveaways for You!

Week 22 = Interweave Miscellaneous
Day 4 = May 31, 2014

     I have so much to tell you today! First, let me start with the nearest and dearest to my heart. Today my Elee (Helen's nickname) baby turned 2. It is hard to imagine 2 years ago at this time I was a new 2nd time Mom with a baby in the NICU.

     Those 7 days that Elee was in the NCIU and hooked up to all those machines were the most emotionally charged I've ever experienced. It is unnatural to go into a hospital in labor and leave without your baby for whatever reason. You would never guess, looking at Elee today, that her situation 2 years ago was so precarious.

I love you, Elee baby!

     Secondly, thanks to donations from some of the instructors and staff at Interweave...and from me personally, I have my giveaways all set for the next 5 months. As a bonus, I got ALL the give-aways signed.

   Thirdly, I have big going's on happening in my head. Today I had the pleasure of reconnecting with an old college friend that I had not seen or talked with  since 2000. Our only link has been through Facebook. Her husband is stationed in Japan and they have 5 kids. So it was a pure miracle that we were able to reconnect during their visit stateside. Apparently her daughter knits. What a coincidence! We talked, caught up, and most importantly oohed and aahed over each other's kids. While doing so, I was struck with an idea about a future project that I need some time to develop. I will be sure to  keep you fully abreast of things as they progress.
