Whew, been a whirlwind of activities this past month. I am sure that I am not alone in this world where things just seem to speed up. Christmas break was not exactly what I had planned for, but as the Good Lord knows, he can plan it better than I can. I had the opportunity to spend a week in a hospice with a good friend and his mother. She had brain cancer and died on Jan. 2. It was a very peaceful and spiritual journey for us. I am so grateful I could be there to participate in this experience. I learned a lot about myself and my own journey. I learned to love unconditionally. I learned to appreciate the Lord's timing. 

Back the reality on the 11th. Back to school filling those little first grade minds with sparkles. It was fun to be missed. They all hugged me and showed me where they had lost their teeth. Oh the simpleness of being 6. 

As for knitting. I finished my first sweeter, I did a baby size one to start out with. It is adorable.

Now, I am doing an afghan to match. Very relaxing and helping me tune into my own rhythm.
