Lots of stuff causes me tremendous stress and is a difficult part of my life right now with so many kids and each of them being overly protective of their toys, etc. But I do look forward to the day when I can simplify so much more!!Nancyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03045958241240870948noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1319454352626199680.post-75026158436913076782017-06-08T09:26:23.677-06:002017-06-08T09:26:23.677-06:00Haha.

I'm going to try to write a post soon in completely the wrong way, Marilyn! <br /><br />And yes, it's lovely starting summer with the Memorial Day weekend! Especially when so many others are still in school do it feels kind of unique. The only down side is that they then go back in only the 3rd week of August, and, like i believe you typically arrange with your homeschool, I'd prefer to have some more time with them into September.Nancyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03045958241240870948noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1319454352626199680.post-47036743353120293822017-05-31T02:45:54.028-06:002017-05-31T02:45:54.028-06:00Hi Nancy!

You've just posted the most exquisite photos!! oh my, such cuteness packed in quilts!! :)<br />I do attach some value to things to, in the sense that they do represent so much more than what they simply seem to be. I like the relation I develop with objects, somehow I see them as friends (does that make sense?). Especially of course the things that were crafted or offered with love. Hence a lot of decluttering atmy home... the less objects i have, the more attention (and car)e I am able to have for them.<br />...to finish, holidays are starting where you are? Well, we still have a whole month to go here :(Valhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07052983331122916155noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1319454352626199680.post-6939756866994131792017-05-25T20:21:25.495-06:002017-05-25T20:21:25.495-06:00ToMORROW?!

I like a school that lets out before Memorial Day as God intended. :)<br /><br />It really would have been a treat to have you write about all these things in the WRONG way, frankly. I'm disappointed you didn't do it. But...I must say...those four quilts snuggled together with those four little people is just about the loveliest thing I've ever seen. I think I like Hansie's best! But they're all works of art. So maybe I would be a little speechless too.Marilynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17085334272613025173noreply@blogger.com
