Happy Friday! Remember my giveaway<\/a>? I have nothing against random number generators, but they lack a certain…charm. So with K’s assistance, I made a little raffle jar, and we have a winner! #25 was Liz, who recommended a knitting blog<\/a>\u00a0and a pottery blog<\/a>. Love ’em! And I have loved each and every blog recommendation and am steadily making my way through getting acquainted with all of them. Thanks again for playing!<\/p>\n

This week’s little exchange with K broke my heart a bit.<\/p>\n

[Bedtime, right after reading a chapter from this book<\/a>]<\/em><\/p>\n

K: Mommy, do you know why I have a crush on [boy from her class]?<\/p>\n

Me: [Pause] Why, honey?<\/p>\n

K: He’s so fascinating<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Me: Huh. What’s fascinating about him?<\/p>\n

K: [sounding very sleepy and starting to drift off] He asks the best<\/em> questions…so interesting…he tells such great stories…<\/p>\n

The girl’s got good taste. But she’s six!! Isn’t that a little early to have crushes?? Oh, my sweet little K, you’re growing up too fast…<\/p>\n

The sewing swap<\/a>\u00a0— Robin<\/a>‘s brainchild — was phenomenal. I was blown away by everyone’s outfits and can’t even tell you how much fun I had sewing for Meg<\/a>‘s son (and daughter, by accident)! And the outfit<\/a> Cherie made K…I’m speechless. She’s a rock star, that Cherie<\/a>,\u00a0and I feel so lucky that we’ll be able to treasure her handiwork!<\/p>\n

Above are a few photos I took before sending out the package to Meg. Super fun!<\/p>\n

Well, it’s been an exciting week for me and I hope you’ve had a good one as well. Have a lovely weekend, friends, and I’ll be back on Monday! Here’s my weekly haiku:<\/p>\n

\u00a0Sewing swaps are fun
\nIf I were to do it next
\nneed a new serger*<\/em><\/p>\n

*I know I keep blaming my serger, but really it’s all user error and I should totally own up to it and crack open the old manual…<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
