One of my personal goals of 2018 was to have a baby. In 2017 I had a miscarriage. I felt like the gap between Hannah, Olivia & Paul was so big that we needed one more to complete our family. Along came George! He was born at home, as was Paul.
We are now a family of 6. God is good!New sweaters from Grammie for the boys! She gave the girls $ they are harder to buy gifts for...
I ordered a set of four linen napkins from this family owned company in Lithuania: not PERFECT LINEN. It took 3 weeks to arrive. I love them, especially the vibrant saffron colour! I'd like to get more eventually. Or maybe splurge on a dress (with buttons for nursing) or skirt from them.
My dad passed away three and a half years ago. It's nice to remember him. He gave us a set of 12 navy and cream woven cotton cloth napkins. We use them every single day, they have been washed a lot and are starting to fray.
I got a set of 4 cream-coloured napkins & a beautiful linen tablecloth, about ten years ago from William-Sonoma, it was actually made in Russia. I haven't used it much lately though.
I want to put it on the table today. The girls have invited some friends over and we plan to bake bread together.
Hope you have a happy 2019!
lots of love... I am glad you got your dream of another child! God bless you all! We still remember your +Dad in our prayers <3
ReplyDeleteBless you, Martha! I know you think of your father at Christmas -- we trust he is keeping an eye on you all, close in spirit, and enjoying his grandchildren, all four!
