For years, I struggled with being alone and wondering what was so wrong with me that someone wouldn't sincerely love me. I had my oldest daughter to take care of and was able to spend a lot of time with family so that helped to a point. I dated now and then but it never seemed to work out. Finally, I learned to just let go, not worry so much about what others thought of me, be happy with who I was. I still had my daughter, extended family, my job and my friends. When I least expected it, I met my husband, we got married and had 3 more sweet girls. I still have my struggles now and then just like everyone does. Surely, I'm not here just to be a maid, secretary, cook and driver. Do they really appreciate me? (The answer is yes!) Some days, I can look in the mirror and be really hard on myself. Most other days, I know I'm the best ME that I can be. You see, I'm not rich or famous but I'm important. *I* can make a difference in other's lives. *I* can be a friend to those in need. *I* can be the best mom my girls need in their lives. *I* can teach them to be kind and loving. *I* can use the talents I've been given to bless others lives.... *I* can do SO many things if I put my mind to it! I have learned so much over the years. I have grown to love who I am now. Are there things I don't like about my past? You bet! (doesn't everyone?) Would I go back and do it over again? Well, there are a few things I would change, but for the most, the answer is no. The dumb mistakes I've made have been learning blocks for me. The choices I've made have made me who I am today. Am I perfect? NOPE! Not even close. I'm trying to be better though and as long as I'm aware of my weaknesses and working to be better, that's all I can expect from myself. So, yes, I am thankful for who I am today! I've said it before but I want to say it again: YOU are Amazing! YOU are loved! YOU are talented! YOU are important! Nobody else can make a better you! I hope you have enjoyed the 10 Days of Thanksgiving Crochet Event! I appreciate you joining us and commenting with the things you are thankful for too. It's been great to get to know you and I hope to see you more.💕 Special $1 crochet pattern offer for 24 hoursBelow are the crochet patterns we chose to offer for just $1 for the next 24 hours Click on each link and use code 10WhoIam to enjoy the discount expires @ 6am MST 11/22/18 **Refunds will not be given for improper use of the code.

Thankful for Snuggles I love snuggles! I love being able to snuggle little babies to let them know they're safe and loved. I love being able to snuggle a sick child, not that I love them being sick but I love being able to comfort them and let them know that I care about them and hope they get better. For many years, I was a single mom and it could be a very lonely feeling at times. When the time was right, I met the man I knew I was supposed to be with and we got married. It's nice now to be able to just snuggle on the couch and watch a movie together and know that he loves me and our kids. I've also been able to watch my nieces and nephews over the years and loved snuggling with them to get them to take a nap or settle down to watch a movie. I have made each of them a blanket so they could snuggle in that whenever they needed comforted. Note to self: I think I still need to make my last nephew a blanket. I see another new blanket afghan in the works! As I've mentioned many times, handmade afghans are my way of offering comfort and love to my family and friends in their times of need. For today's $1 pattern, I chose the Braided Cable Chevron Afghan. I love the simplicity of the cable climbing the peeks of the chevron.

Thankful for Traditions I find it fascinating to hear the various traditions of families and friends and even others around the world. What is cool about it is that while many may be the same, many put their own little spins on a tradition to make it unique to their families. When I was a little girl, I lived next door to my grandparents. Every Thanksgiving and Christmas, she had her banquet table covered with a nice table runner and this beautiful candy dish (or a few of them) filled with Bridge Mix and Chocolate covered orange sticks. I love chocolate covered nuts but HATED the chocolate covered raisins and something about orange and chocolate mixed gives me headaches. I would always try to remember which color of chocolate or which shape may be the nuts. Sadly, I bit into those terrible raisins many more times than I would have liked. Back then, my mom would sew each of us 6 kids a new pair of PJ's to be opened on Christmas eve. It was always fun to have a new pajama to wear to bed. My favorite were made out of Trico or some similar slippery fabric and they were comfy! My siblings and I would draw names and we'd be able to pick out one present for that person. Since all of us are married now, we play the white elephant game for our family Christmas party. Our kids have fun drawing names with their cousins and choosing 1 gift for them. I love that we're able to carry on that tradition for our kids to enjoy. It's something they look forward to and I hope we can keep it going a while longer. The biggest tradition (and I think the best) is the homemade old fashioned candy. Every year, my aunt would make old fashioned fudge, penuche and boston creme and give a package of it to my dad. If we were lucky, he'd share with us. It didn't last long! My uncle would spend a bunch of time in the freezing cold of his garage dipping homemade cherry chocolates. Oh boy! I had the privilege of staying with them my senior year of high school and was able to help him a little (before I got to cold) and watch his process. Sadly, the family doesn't know where his recipe went for those. For a few years, I asked my aunt for her candy recipes and she would just brush it off and we would forget. One year, she finally told me she would have me there when she was making the candy so I could learn the tricks. To my disappointment, she ended up showing her daughter in law. Great for her, but dang it! It took some time and I think by the time I did get it out of her, she wasn't doing well health wise. I reminded her that if she didn't pass them on to one of us, the tradition would be lost. She told me the recipes and I wrote the small set of instructions out as best I could... "A little of this...", A dash of that..." You know how those old recipes go! But the trick wasn't so much in the quantity but more in the process. It took me some time to really get it down but I love that I'm able to carry on that family tradition! She has since passed away and I try to take some candy to her husband so he can still have a bit of her legand during the holidays. It's truly not a holiday without her old fashioned candy! In the spirit of holiday candy making, I chose to offer all of my Kitchen Towel Top crochet patterns for just $1 each for day 8 of the 10 Days of Thanksgiving Crochet Event. I hope you'll enjoy a little holiday cooking too!
