A look back ...

Do you ever look back at your blog history? I don't very much, but I was curious if/what I wrote about today 3 years ago ...

The ORDINARY ACTS we practice EVERDAY at HOME
are of more IMPORTANCE to the SOUL
than their SIMPLICITY might suggest.
-Thomas Moore

Three years ago I'd only been home with Ethan for 2 1/2 years ... and yet I 'got this' quote. It spoke to me then and it does just as much today ... 5 1/2 years ago I started this full time job of being a mom and wife and staying home everyday. I've never regretted one of those days. I think I should memorize this for the next time someone says, 'oh, you just stay home?'

Happy Day!

Absolutely! 6 months in & I completely agree. And BTW, how should I respond when someone says, 'oh, you don't work?'. Spitting probably isn't appropriate. :)

Such a great quote. And so true! Loving the crafty goodness. Between you and Jenn, I'm dying to quilt too! Bad enablers! ;) And that E with Eloise, what cuties!

Thanks for the quote. I needed that today because Sophia's been sick with a cold and we've been a little house-bound this week. A great reminder that we really are doing important stuff here!
