thanks be

Today's post by SouleMama is so touching...I just love her blog, she's always reminding her readers to appreciate the small things in life, and to remember...

Sometimes the remembering part is hard, especially when our brains won't even allow us to put together a complete thought. Even trying to figure out what I want to say here is difficult! So my posts have been short. And still, it takes me forever to come up with one. Silly.

So I'll just show here what I've been stitching and try not to say too much since it all comes out wrong anyway...



This design is from La D Da...



an oldie, but goodie.



it was finished before the Spring Fling, but I forgot to post it. Typical!



Stitched on 35 ct. Daily Grind over two with one strand WDW thread.

Beautiful finish Andrea! The colors are so pretty. I used to read Soule Mamma's blog all the time. I hadn't seen it in awhile. Her new baby is so precious! I enjoyed going through her old blog posts and looking at sweet baby pictures - She takes the most amazing pictures. It is so important to appreciate the small things - life is so short. We must enjoy each day to the fullest! I firmly believe that. :)

What a sweet design. Another great finish Andrea.

Yes sometimes remembering can be hard, but it is the small things that are most precious and can get us through life's most difficult times.
