It's been a while...
We've been busy wrapping up February and diving into March! A few highlights:
Above, a fifteenth birthday for Tates! Fifteen!
Below, an Orange belt for Dassa. So special to have her sister as one of the testing Senseis. I just adore the expression on Dassa's face - she is so very proud of her accomplishment. ♥
A visit to see GG - with Pawbee and Boppa. GG will be 104 in June. Whoa...
A scarf has been frogged. I washed the yarn and wound it back into some beautiful skeins of loveliness that will be knit into a *better* scarf someday soon:
Still making weekly treks to agility training with Pitter. She and Zeke love it so:
We have done quite a bit of babysitting...it's great fun for Dassa (and often Pit-Pat as well), and I usually get in quite a bit of knitting. One babysitting day, we caught a glimpse of a friend through the trees:
So onward we skip through March! The snow is melting, the birds are singing...I can't wait for the unfolding of our first Spring in this new house.
Good: Birds singing!
Not So Good: A niggling kidney stone...
Super-Duper-Amazingly Good: Dassa has been in Richmond with her Pawbee for a week, and she'll be home in about an hour's time. I can't wait to hug my sweet baby girl!
Fabulous. Glad all is skipping along so sweetly in your new woodland retreat.

Isn't it lovely to feel at last that it won't always be dark . There have been a couple of months when it seemed as though we'd crossed into some Sci-Fi Eternal Winter mode !
I used to love going to stay with my grandmother , too , as a child and was always spoilt there but coming home afterwards was the best bit .
Hope the kidney stone stops niggling !

GG is reaching 104, I hope she has a lovely birthday, I bet she has so any interesting tales on life to tell.
Best wishes
