My oldest son turns 45 today! It hardly seems possible. Wasn't it just yesterday he was turning one? I am so grateful for this son of mine and all that he is and does. He's a great dad, a great husband, a good friend. I appreciate all the efforts he takes and makes to ensure his boys know who I am. He's a brilliant cook and a good and kind person with a heart of gold. I hate that I have to live so far away from him. I hope that he has a lovely Birthday, and that it is filled to overflowing with blessings large and small. Love you very much Anthony! Happy Birthday! Being your mum has been one of the greatest blessings in my life.
A thought to carry with you . . .

ReplyDeleteI think a lot of us are around the same age and were having our children around the same time Monique! You have a good weekend also! xoxo
DeleteHappy Friday Marie. Thankfully there is always somthient new to learn and to do. Make like so much more than ordinary. I have done that pounding flower art when I was camping with some of my grandchildren years ago. It works but it does take a lot of pounding and it's best with deeply colored flowers.
ReplyDeleteI hope that I never stop learning Pam! Have a great weekend! xoxo
DeleteOH so many fun projects!! How lovely Anthony has been such a super son!! Wish you could see him too...well, never hurts to have hope!!
ReplyDeleteHugs, Elizabeth xoxo
Hope springs eternal Elizabeth! xoxo
Deletehaha...just remembered my oldest, a son, will also be 45 in Nov this year...time flies!!
ReplyDeletelove, Elizabeth xoxo
They say time flies when you are having fun Elizabeth? Not sure about that one! xoxo
DeleteWell as always you have some interesting finds. Many of them are perfect for my children and grandchildren. I want to show a couple of them to one granddaughter that would love doing them.
ReplyDeleteI loved all the crochet patterns. I went to get some yarn a while back at one store and they were almost sold out. I plan to make another trip and maybe start a blanket. I used to love to crochet.
Happy Birthday to your Anthony! I love your thoughts on him. These older son's are awesome. Mine will turn 53 at the end of the month. That really seems impossible to me how time flies.
Sending love and hugs today!
