Pages and Projects {The Kindness Challenge}
Shaunti Feldhaun’s newest book The Kindness Challenge has been laying on my to-read stack for a little while. I pulled it out this past week. I’ve wanted to read it ever since I got it. I just haven’t. Maybe because part of me wants very much to be kind, to live kindness, to grow in […]

Yarn Along {Once Upon a Time Storybook Bible}
Isn’t this camper pillow the most fun?! It’s from my sister’s shop over here at Sew a Fine Seam. I snagged it {not literally}{well, not in the literal pull-a-thread kind of snaggy way} while we were in Ohio because it was the perfect gift for a friend. I love the springy colors and all the […]
Yarn Along {Love Does}
Another week…………..and more books, of course! I started Love Does and All the Pretty Things. I’m about to finish Love Does. It’s a super-easy read and it is fascinating. I’ll admit that All the Pretty Things is a little bit of a hard read for me. It’s not really all that pretty of a childhood. […]
