In Amanda’s words: This Moment – A Friday ritual. A single photo – no words – capturing a moment from the week. A simple, special, extraordinary moment. A moment I want to pause, savor and remember.
About
My name is Rose. I am a stitcher, painter, knitter, spinner, quilter, cook, homeschooler, and mother. I find myself saying, "I could make that," way too many times in a day. I fantasize about making every item in my house, from dishes and cups to furniture, blankets, and clothes. My loves are chocolate, mary jane shoes, and yarn shops. I have two Laughing Monkeys at home: The Boy, 9 and The Girl, 6. I share them with the love of my life, The Daddy Monkey.Categories
