Life's a Stitch

Are these the cutest things you ever did see:

Last year the pres of my board of directors and I started knitting these. I did a total of three; she did at least three dozen. She sold them at a craft fair for $12 Cdn, a totally too reasonable price. I wanted to buy a pair of hers to use as a gift, but she insisted on giving them to me. She is a very nice person and I love working with her. Her colours are the cutest. Mine were pastels. I do have a pair of white ones on the needles for a Baptism gift.

Speaking of babies, I bought mine his first official piece of men’s clothing. It’s a corduroy jacket from Old Navy, which just opened near us. There are times in a child’s life where costs rise significantly. When they turn two and can no longer fly for free, when they advance from the children’s menu to the adult one, when they move into adult clothes, and of course, when they enter college. I have two there right now, complete with room and board.
A friend of mine told me of family friends who have four kids in college. Whew!
