Wanna be a work-at-home mom? (and finding our way as moms and women)
January 15, 2013
I think it's official that I'm now a work at home mom. Saying this feels strange to me. Because I've always worked at home. But now my work earns our family money and there are dedicated times in our schedule when I do this work (in which I have to ...
Doll Making ~ Your Questions Answered
January 14, 2013
Céline and I have collaborated to answer your doll making questions from this post. I'm going to start off by saying I never taught Céline how to make dolls. I am not a doll maker. Years ago, I taught Céline how to sew basic stitches (her skill in that department ...
I'm not your type (more than you ever wanted to know about my personality)

January 2, 2013
I didn't make any handmade gifts this year. I gave other people's handmades. Handmade gifting does not have to mean DIY. Isn't that lovely? But for my kids it's all about handmade and DIY. Crafting is what they do. Here's a few photos of the gifts they gave each other ...
My New Year is the end of Christmas Week (and now it's time to clean the house)
January 1, 2013
I often find my writing a little awkward, out of place even, this time of year in the blogosphere. This year doesn't seem to be much of an exception. I have no looking back post to share. No collection of 2012's top posts, a play by play of what we ...
