After my brother passed away 3 years ago I have a new sense of life, nothing is going to hold me back from living this life to the fullest. For those of you that really know me, know I am not one to jump into things slowly I am all or nothing. So I said to my sweet Taylor can you teach me again how to crochet? Her response was quite hysterical "last time you about threw the hooks across the room mommy" I said I know, but I feel ready now and this is something i have wanted to learn, i promise I will be patient. I felt like i was now her child! Here i am telling my daughter this when she learned by watching YOUTUBE. I have no shame, lets go get all the supplies I need and get started on this new adventure.
On our way to Joann's Taylor was talking to me about being patient with it and not to worry she will help me out with anything! "So mom what to you want to try to make?" "A scarf would be an easy start mom." My response did not shock me cause like I said before all or nothing. No Taylor we are making a huge blanket even better yet a Christmas blanket! I know it will take a long time but why start small when you can go big. I proceeded to tell her how special this will be, we can do it together then when you are older you can do the same if you have a daughter. She was thrilled loved the idea, a we had a blast picking out our Christmas colors for the blanket.
Yes friends, I learned, I was patient as ever and picked it up in no time. There were a few hiccups but Taylor was so amazing and patient with me. I stopped and really thanked the Lord above for giving me such a beautiful gift, this composed gentle human being that is my daughter. We are still working on our blanket and hope to have it done by thanksgiving.
This is a scarf I am starting on my own :)
