Reducing stress one potholder at a time.
Our family celebrates the 4th.
Someone is excited.
He helped set up the slip and slide, and 3 splash pools.
Thank God he is doing so well. He and Stephanie did all the cooking and cleaning up
He and his children adore each other.
I made my grandmother's strawberry shortcake, when I went to get it,
Lynsey had crushed Oreo cookie all over the top...
Gotta love that girl...making memories of her own.
I sat in my sewing room totally relaxed
My son told me to stay there while they all did the fireworks.No hysterical grandmothers allowed to ruin the fun.
Wahoo....no stress...It was one of the best 4ths in forever.
Because...I was not in charge, in any way...whew..
This quote is powerful...takes away all the cultural guilt from not
quickly healing emotionally from life's crises...

Pretty pot holders, very pretty :)
