Life in my family:
1. DD, 22-yrs-old, having finished her degree last June, has decided to get married in July.
2. Future son-i-l is not through with school, with at least two more years to go, eight months at a Bible college.
3. We would like them to wait.
4. Not possible as the Bible college requires a marriage certificate if cohabiting.
5. We would like them to wait. If it can wait eight months then its meant to be, if it can’t…
6. Said Bible college is outside of Moose Jaw, SK, affectionately known as Moose Breath in our house. There is no shortage of nurses there and requires DD to sell her apartment in order to move.
7. We would like them to wait, but nothing this set of parents says makes any difference.
8. We’re all talking, so that’s good. Some more enthusiastically than others.
9. I know, it could be a lot worse. There’s a chance it will all work out, they may end up the happiest couple on earth. But what’s the rush?
10. Just when life gets a little exciting, something happens to make it more so. Consider my SIL. She’s a knitter, has been a guest blogger here and I’ve written about her yarn acquisitions. Well, on Sunday, she gained an acquisition of another variety. Her 23-yr-old daughter called her from the local hospital, in an excited state. Surprise! Upon arriving, SIL was presented with unanticipated granddaughter #2. Long story, beautiful baby.
11. And 15-yr-old son brought home his report card with a considerable drop in grades from last term.
I’m Olympic knitting, no time for pictures, so how about one of Gracee watching a scene from the Parrots of Telegraph Hill
