I love and admire all those that have made it work to be able to be with their children and run their household. I want to recover furniture, but it looks too intense. I am knitting a fair isle vest right now and trying to put binding on a quilt...so my passion, cross stitch, is languishing at the moment.Robin Suttonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00530022913604550753noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6309884558694469075.post-17794882858391350882015-07-26T17:20:36.340-07:002015-07-26T17:20:36.340-07:00I thoroughly enjoyed this post, Pam!

Even then, I went back to work and finally quit when she was 10 months old. Actually because the the oldest child, a teenager needed more adult supervision! 2 1/2 years after my daughter was born I had my 3rd and final child. By then, my husband, who was active duty Navy was doing work ups getting ready to be gone for a 6 month deployment. It was even more important to be home with the kids. I can tell you back then I did very little stitching. Didn't have time.Pam Tannerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09567844719158055823noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6309884558694469075.post-58690403273004452882015-07-23T15:48:25.545-07:002015-07-23T15:48:25.545-07:00Your slipcover looks great so far!

I am fairly new to staying at home (since my son was born) and I struggle with it sometimes but overall I believe that the person who stays home caring for family and home is critically important and provides many valuable services.

If I didn't ...I forgot being the gardener too. If I didn't go out there and tend to them, they'd be overgrown. The only reason we have TRUGreen is because it drove my husband crazy that I was always out there pulling weeds from the yard. I'm not looking for kudos. Staying at home almost gives some people the impression that you're boring. I'm not sitting around eating bonbons and watching soaps. I'm a busy girl! Staying home taking care not f my family and my home is important to me. Crafting of any sort on the side is icing on the cake.Pam Tannerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09567844719158055823noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6309884558694469075.post-71337709383119140972015-07-22T14:43:49.775-07:002015-07-22T14:43:49.775-07:00Everything you mentioned sounds very familiar and ...Everything you mentioned sounds very familiar and you are right - I've never found a piece of chocolate on my pillow either. :) It seems that all we do sometimes goes unrecognized that is until we don't do something. Making slipcovers is something I've always wanted to try. My grandmother could do all those kinds of things ~ maybe it's in my genes? :) By the way I just saw your message about Rhoda Hastings and placed my order today. Thank you so much for letting me know!Pennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06807665680552691472noreply@blogger.com
