Oh, since I won't post for Thoughts for Thursday, I thought I would share a thought my Rebecca wrote. Her assignment in English was to write something similar to the saying in the movie "Forest Gump" that goes, "Life is like a box of chocolates....."(you know the one). Anyway, she wrote 10, but this one is my favorite:
"Life is like an orange...You won't know if it's sweet or sour until you peel it and eat it." Pretty perceptive for a 9 year old!!

Be Nice to People,
Julie

Enjoy your special time with the girls on their days off. Love the quote and the great family picture!
I just found your blog and have loved reading the first few posts. Family is SO IMPORTANT to me also. I LOVE the HAPPY JACK wall hanging. I want to learn to quilt so badly and this looks like something I might be able to do with just squares but I've waited too long to do a Halloween hanging for this year---maybe next. Do you have a "simple" idea for a Christmas one? I'll be back visiting you again.
Yall have fun!!! I love, and will be remembering THAT quote! What a thought provoking assignment!
Look at your beautiful family! What a great picture!
So... when would you like to swap? I'm all ready...
Hi Julie
What a beautfiul family you have.
I hope you enjoy your time away as a family and I know you will have a wonderful time together.
You are so very clever making your Happy Jack wall hanging.
Our temperatures are starting to warm up here in Australia, getting ready for a hot and humid Christmas. The snow is falling in your neck of the woods, getting ready for a white Christmas. Ahhh, how I love Christmas.
Love

Your daughter is wise beyond her years!
Have fun on your family get-a-way. I can't wait to read all about it.
I hope you had a great time!
Love the pic! :)
