thankful

I often think about the things my parents passed onto the girls, the little unseen gifts in hobbies, habits, memories and the like. Knitting was one of the little blessings mom left with the girls. She took the time to teach them, and to pass on the love of a hobby. Just a little something I am thankful for today.

We ordered some stand-outs from WHCC the other day for our living room wall. They arrived yesterday afternoon and we set to arranging them last night, with this as the final result. 

“It is the main earthly business of a human being to make his home, and the immediate surroundings of his home, as symbolic and significant to his own imagination as he can.” 

–G.K. Chesterton, The Coloured Lands
