Magnanimously homeschooling, worshiping, creating.......

Join us on a journey of faith, healing, learning to live with part of our hearts missing, and recovery, as our family rebuilds our lives, after our son's long battle with cancer....and his eventual rise on eagle's wings into Heaven...victory is his...he is serving the King!!!

homemadies

I will now attempt to show you some crochet things I made prior to Christmas that I couldn't show you due to giving it away for some people. I tried to make most of my gifts this year since it is full of love and money is a bit tight. I hope everyone was feeling loved by them.

I made the little cousins home made girly bags with something cute in them.

This is a crazy crochet blanket that I made for my granny! I really love my sweet granny. She goes with us to the hospital when she can. We get together for meals and game playing etc. She and my mom camped out at my house when we lived out of town, waiting forever it seemed for B to be born and thankfully they were there when he finally arrived. I remember her popping her head in every few seconds and wondering where the midwife was!! Yes, it's true...they were late for our home birth and she had to walk outside and tell them..."it's a boy!!"

Don't worry, all was well. They arrived right after he was born and he was perfect if a little fast coming out.

Here she is getting cozy posing for me.

Here is more stripey goodness, like a river of flowing yarn.

I made many hats this year that are soft and furry.

Why MAGNANIMOUS?

Noah Webster's 1828 Dictionary of the American Language defines Magnanimity as such:
MAGNANIM'ITY, n. [L. magnanimitas; magnus, great, and animus, mind.] Greatness of mind; that elevation or dignity of soul, which encounters danger and trouble with tranquillity and firmness, which raises the possessor above revenge, and makes him delight in acts of benevolence, which makes him disdain injustice and meanness, and prompts him to sacrifice personal ease, interest and safety for the accomplishment of useful and noble objects.
