"You stand up for what you believe in, even if it gets you in the way of what others think..."

My photo
if i could use one word to describe my life SERENDIPITY seems to fit the space... i stumbled upon my husband during a time i shouldn't have and my story goes on from there... constantly falling or stumbling upon remarkable gifts and people who bring fortune to our lives... when we fall we learn and strive toward the next step.

little ones create~

nov. 12,

it is cold here
yesterday when i woke at 2:45 am
it was 34 degrees outside
BBBRRR

i am one who
 never ever ever
wears socks
all through the rain sleet snow shine
i can be found in my flip flops
or slippers as i say

we were laughing so hard last night
as i literally own four pairs of socks
and those four pairs of socks
 i have had for almost twenty years

one pair is just about on its last leg or foot i should say
we couldn't figure out what was funnier
the fact that i really only had four pairs of socks
or the fact that they are so old

as of late
i have been bundling my little piggies up
cause i just can't shake the cold

so you know what i am asking for this year??? hehehe

anyways
we finally picked up our littles pottery


one older one created a vase
for a first attempt of a vase on the wheel
trying to make something other than bowls or cups
i think it turned out mighty fine

{you are going to be blown away by his second attempt
won't be home for another five weeks when the lesson ends
but my oh my
i couldn't not really believe it
he is quite excited about it  as welll and wants to put it up in etsy...stay tuned!}


one older ones dainy little goblet


now
by the hands of our littlest

reminds me of a little faerie throne
nice big and plush...hehehe


ever so sweet is this here duck
the mind of our littlest cracks me


and his interpretation of a wee little bird


" and mama look
i made you a spoon and dish for your honey
when you make your tea"

...sigh...

must l♥ve


each session
there always seems to be one piece
that really stands out

this time our littlest stole the show
even one older brother was quite impressed

now i know i am partial
as they are created by the hands of my littles

but my goodness
sometimes i wish my creativity
would be just as free


i l♥ve how he layered the clay
and the colors he chose
are so beautiful to me

once more
you flooded me with great warmth yesterday
i am slowly working on responding to each one
but am a bit overwhelmed by
 your compassion and l♥ve

weekend ahead
what will you do???

sunday i think
we
{husband and i...no wee littles at hand}
may be having
 a few hours
for a little afternoon date!

Ah, the creativity of children. Such treasures.
Now, I am just the opposite of you when it comes socks. I think I am addicted. I have so many I actually pack some away for the winter. I love them...except, when I go to bed, my feet must be free. Hubby can sleep in socks...not me.

What wonderful treasures created from the hands of your littles. You have every right to be proud! I cannot wait to see the forthcoming vase, as well. That is so funny about your socks - or lack thereof. I simply cannot live without them. The bulkier the better. And I love to knit socks - especially upon seeing the construction of them come together. They are fascinating to create. :) Stay warm, dearest! Theresa

my beliefs include many, constantly seeking knowledge, not needing one particular label that defines me nor trying to justify my thoughts to anyone else but me...this is my life and i am living it my way...bringing happiness to my inner soul.
