Ramblings, Sentiments, Rantings and Musings

My photo
I am a mother of 5 wonderful children and wife to one amazing Navy man. I am always changing things in my life, constantly learning something new and trying it out. I am a wannabe vegan, minimalist and currently living full time in an RV. Just for clarification, I say wannabe, because I know I am not perfect, but each day I strive to do the best I can. That's all I can expect from anyone no matter where they are in life. I learn something new everyday...mostly about myself and my little corner of reality. Life, to me, is loving, learning and making memories. These are better than all the tangible riches one can get their hands on! Besides, there will come a day when all I have left is my love and memories...so I'll stockpile as much of those as I can!
All at once

Last night as I sat on the couch working on a blanket for my brother I looked to my right and I saw Miranda crocheting a chain that she said was going to be a scarf. Then I looked to my left and Paxton was sitting in the chair crocheting something. Then I looked a little further left and saw Franki sitting at the kitchen table crocheting something. So I got up to look for my oldest daughter Brianna just to see and she was in her room knitting a scarf!

I thought it was neat that all of us were creating something from yarn all at the same time. Goofy I know, but I am so glad that my girls love this type of creating as much as I do!

Franki crocheting roses.

And then I awoke this morning to find that the other two females in my house Sis and Cheyenne have decided that they are crazy about yarn as well. They definitely had a ball with a ball of yarn!


As long as everyone is happy I guess! It's the beginning of another wonderful day!

Famous Quotes



"I am beginning to suspect all elaborate and special systems of education. They seem to me to be built upon the supposition that every child is a kind of idiot who must be taught to think. Whereas, if the child is left to himself, he will think more and better, if less showily. Let him go and come freely, let him touch real things and combine his impressions for himself, instead of sitting indoors at a little round table, while a sweet-voiced teacher suggests that he build a stone wall with his wooden blocks, or make a rainbow out of strips of coloured paper, or plant straw trees in bead flower-pots. Such teaching fills the mind with artificial associations that must be got rid of, before the child can develop independent ideas out of actual experience." -- Anne Sullivan
