Howdy

I wanted to show you Pepper's new pillow that Hunter made for her. When Hunter was about 5 my Mom taught him to sew simple things like a button or how to hem curtains. He started hand sewing pillows for himself and friends. His other Grandmother thought it was neat and bought him a Singer sewing machine for Christmas this year and my Mom taught him to sew on it. He enjoys it and picked it up quickly. I haven't learned to sew on it yet. Hopefully Hunter will teach me. Our dog Pepper is getting older and Hunter wanted her to have a huge bed. I think we made it too big but Hunter said it's just right for him to lay on it with her while watching T.V.

Check out this huge egg one of our chicken's laid. I had never seen an egg so large. Thought it was neat and decided to share.

I guess I will be blogging more again. I was substitute teaching at Hunter's school several days a week but our state is going through a budget cut and they called me and said they had to cut all subs. Maybe next year. I will still see the children since I plan on volunteering some.

Blessings...

Hey Sherry,

Talk about a huge egg....wow.
I'm sorry to hear about the budget cuts. The Charter School is still calling subs every once in a while because they are independent of the school district. You might want to go by and drop off your card or something and let them know you did preschool.
It's cool that Hunter can sew. I can sew very (and I mean very) simple things with my sewing machine.

Good to see an athletic, BOY sewing. My mom showed Stewart how to cross stitch at Christmas and he made me a book mark. Too bad about the sub business. Closed doors, open windows...isn't that how the saying goes?

I got a sewing machine a couple of years ago, but I haven't had it out b/c of destructo. I hope when our room is done I will have room for my sewing machine.....
Hunter also made a horse pillow for my Lauren and she LOVES it. She won't go to sleep without it.....
