I'm good at pretending.

This is the quilt that I am currently pretending that I'm making. I NEED to find some time to make it in real life (instead of just in my head), because it is just so, SO wonderful. I just have to make it. I love Anna Maria Horner. And I love that she's crazy talented and accomplished...and she's the mother of 5 (soon to be 6) children. I love that she's following her dream and bringing her kids along for the ride rather than doing it at their expense. Check out her blog, you'll be inspired.
I'm also currently pretending that I have Tess's hair. Did anyone see Tess of the D'urbervilles on Sunday? We don't have our TV hooked up to anything but our DVD player, so I didn't see it on PBS, but the website has it available to watch. I give it an "eh" so far. But I'm a tough critic of the "Victorian Era novel turned into a movie" genre. Mostly because I'm obsessed with them all. Want a good recommendation? Try "He Knew He Was Right". On second thought, I'll talk about that in a whole separate post. It was thought-provoking. In the meantime, go check out Tess. I give the hair two thumbs up and the jury's still out on the rest of the movie.

Hello. This is Amy Myers (Vonk) my mom gave me your blog link and I just wanted to say congrats. I know we didnt know each other super well, I was more Annie's age (and thought she was AWESOME!). I have 15 month old twins. Just want to say you can do it. The first 6 months are definitely the hardest. Check out my blog too. Good luck they are ADORABLE.
