Stickability?

To all Mothers out there , Happy Mothers Day.  As a proud mum and grandma I think every day is Mothers Day, especially those days that I get to spend with daughters and grand-daughters.  Speaking of which, yesterday I looked after Miss Faith, she's growing so fast now and although doesn't speak much she has a way to get her point across. 

This little girl has a Daddy who owns an enormous truck and a couple of diggers and drives (if that's what you do) junior digger a crane that Faith can identify from afar.  So it was no surprise when one of her first words said loud and clear was digger!

Speaking of Daddy's, our man is due home within six weeks.  In some ways the last five months have flown by, in other ways it has been a long hard slog.

I'm not sure if I can blame the onset of Winter for the restlessness that has come over me with regards to my stitching lately. Has anybody else developed this problem or am I the only slacker around here?  The weather certainly has been conducive to staying indoors, with only a couple of fine days in the last two or three weeks.The ground is saturated and there is a quite a bit of surface flooding around the section.   Having become a great025'starter' I'm struggling to stick with projects and get the darned things finished.  Which is why projects like Gardener's Journal have been so great as I can pick them up in between other starts.  On that note I guess I should toodle off and get stitching.

To all you Mums out there, have a wonderful day.
