....and a job for everyone. Even Ethan has to earn his keep around here. Actually he loves to push the dust mop around on the hard wood floors....but his favorite thing is the vacuum. I think he just prefers items with cords!!!
He really does not have any chores, YET.....but since I have NO photos to show of ANY progress....his cuteness will have to carry me this time.
I did manage to get a couple things done over the past few days: 1. I traced both Easter dress patterns onto pattern paper....next I need to cut out all the fabric. 2. I spent maybe 5 minutes quilting on the Irish Chain...yes, I realize at this rate it will take years...but I take what I can get. 3. I spent precious time tonight making a bag for my knitting....when I should have been quilting. 4. I have almost finished another sweater for Ethan. 6. And last, but not least, I tried out a new thimble...and while it fits fabulously.......it doesn't work well.
I will take pictures of the bag soon.

Don't pressure yourself to accomplish a lot of tasks during the day. Just raising 3 kids and the daily grind should be enough. Don't beat yourself up-it only leads to stress.
Ethan's cuteness can carry you over. How sweet is he? It's funny, but dust mopping the floors is Andrew's chore in our home!
Missy,
It's funny, but working on craft projects is what relaxes me. If I go several days without touching my knitting, sewing, quilting, etc....I start to get stressed out!!!! I don't always fit crafting into each and every day....but I try. Meals, homeschooling, chores, etc always come first.....then crafting time...usually after the little ones are in bed.
