Would you believe that last month February we had 12 days in a row of waking up to below zero temps. The coldest I woke up to was -21 when I was at a quilt retreat and here at home it was -15. I was very happy to see that cold snap break.

Almost no pictures either, just a few. It was that desire that encouraged me to break the cycle of silence and start a blog. It is dedicated to my descendants who have yet to be born. My purpose is to share glimpses of life now.<br /><br />Lorelei will treasure your blog and read every word years from now when her children are older.
