A reward for 13 years of hard work

This morning, I put ALL FOUR kids on the bus to go to school ALL DAY. EVERY DAY. I know many moms who shed tears at this momentous event but not me, baby.

As soon as the laundry's done, I'm taking off down to Denver to go to a really huge yarn store and I'm gonna get a set of Denise's needles, a past issue of IK that has a men's sweater pattern that I want, and maybe some yarn if something strikes my eye.

My house is quiet and I don't even have any music on. I will clean up the breakfast dishes and no one will make a mess until late afternoon. I will drink coffee.

Life is good.

You go woman! You deserve it after that many years. I just sent my yougest ot kindergarten for half day and boo-hooed my eyes out. But I only have 2 and it's not been that many years for me with young ones at home.
