Post Christmas knitting update... after 11 pair of felted clogs..... I needed to do some fun knitting;) And a bit of finishing....
So we have a Noro Silk Garden lite wrap in a basket weave pattern.

A pair of Knitty's "Fetching" mits with a cabled headband to coordinate , in Berrocco alpaca...

Next, I started a "Forest Canopy" Shawl in Kidsilk Haze....the best purple.

Finally- Clapotis #5 in Lorna's Laces Lion and Lamb- Black Pearl colorway.

Just a random Noah moment----yesterday- while eating his Ravioli from a can for lunch... he got very serious....
"Mommy, I have something I always wanted to tell you..."
As a mom of teens AND a little guy- that phrase made me a little nervous---- would it be a confession? An imponderable question? NOPE.
"What, honey?" I implored.
"You're beautiful" He said- to my yet to shower or run a brush through my wild haired surprise.
The best part? I think he meant it.
I love being a Mom.
