Lessons

On Friday night my parents and I were trying to get dinner ready and just talking about things (who knows what we were talking about). I had put Jackson in his highchair and peeled an orange while chatting and not really paying attention to him.

Suddenly, I realized he was uh, uh, uh, uhing everything. I knew he wanted something so I turned around and said, "What Jackson? What is the matter?" When instantly he folded his arms and bowed his head.

What a sweet little boy. And I was starting to get irritated by all the crying and fussing, when all he wanted to do was say a blessing over his dinner! What a surge of happiness this sent through me. He understands so much and I love watching him grow and learn.

That is such a cute story--he sure remembers things so well!!
As far as your question about the table runner--yes, I did machine quilt it. And yes, it's the stipling we learned in Jr High! It isn't perfect at all--But I've been wanting to practice it and try to get better.
