Just Do the Right Thing...

Amongst the daffodils is the granny top finished...Thank you all for the feedback.

Doing the right thing is so hard sometimes...but the rewards are oh, so sweet.
My daughter-in-law is turning 30 on Wednesday. 
It coincides with her one year celebration of being drug free.
Today she spent the day with her children at my house.
I was exhausted and the kids were thrilled.
But..then...after all day, her friends were having a surprise birthday party for her.
I so would have preferred to crawl into bed early..but....
I drove her home and the kids and I hid in the back yard to join in the surprise.
Lynsey told me over and over thank you for letting them go.

She is doing so well.  She has 11 roommates.
They love her so much that they put on this party.
The rainbow behind the clouds.
My mother would be proud...lol.
My man has been in bed all day on this dreary Sunday.
He is still able to whisper the words to tell me to go sew.
And..to put his two cents in on occasion!!
TBTG
Going to bed now...a wonderful day after all.
