Mums, Clogs, and Neglected Sewing Patterns

January 13, 2025

The End of 2024 & What's on My Mind for 2025

January 3, 2025

Maybe it's 16 years of writing on this same dot com, older kids, or a faster pace of life that comes with older children. Whatever it was, let's talk about a few things from the end of this year, and what I hope to do with this blog in 2025. We spent Christmas Eve in Lutcher watching...
