In Michael's Honor...

I got an email from my sweet aunt last night.  In the email, she informed me that she had just completed 40 crocheted beanie hats for newborns in Michael's honor.  Aren't they beautiful?  It truly brought tears to my eyes.  What a beautiful way to honor our sweet little Michael.

Thank you again Aunt Jody, I sure love you.

p.s. I guess I found my mentor for crocheting.  I completed my first project last night...a bookmark.  It was a very pathetic attempt.  I may just have to steal some lessons from her!

    I just read through your experience with your sweet baby. Wow.
    You are very strong and a great example to all of us. I'm sure Micheal is honored that you are his mother.

A Giveaway :: Princess Dress Up Closet

This giveaway is closed. View the winner here . I'm very excited about today's giveaway.  My brother and sister-in-law have recently started up the cutest little online dress up shop for little princesses.  When they contacted me to do a giveaway, I couldn't help but think of all of my friends and readers with cute little daughters, granddaughters and nieces.  I had to give them a chance to win one of these dresses! With princess dress up clothes that make me wish I were five again, the Princess Dress Up Closet is the perfect shop for little girls.  I know for a fact we didn't have cute dresses like this around when I was a little girl. I have seen these dresses in person.  They are adorable, great quality and don't have any itchy fabrics (bonus).  The best part?  They are machine washable !  I am almost tempted to buy one for Little Guy... but instead I'll just have to live vicariously through my cute little nieces and save the poor kid s...
