I know I haven't been here in forever, but I really miss you guys. I miss my tatting and sharing with everyone. Besides, Grandma Lala has to brag about her babies!
I have been practicing my tatting this last week. I am trying very hard to get healthy and improve my mobility, including my fingers.
I can see the gorgeous pictures, but the text is very hard to read because it seems to be overlaid with some of the decorative wallpaper from one of your other posts! - but I am very glad that you are back to blogging, and your grandsons are very handsome. Isaac has grown so big!! I have a new grandson too, born on March 13th.
Thank you Diane. He is big, huh? I really am in heaven with our boys. They are so individual that they completely cover each desirable trait. No. I am not smitten! Well, not much..... Hi Maureen. I know there is a problem with the background and I haven't been able to fix it yet. I am trying. I want my boys to show up well. Isaac has grown up beautifully and loved his baby brother and little cousin more than I could have imagined. No harm will come to them under his watch! Congratulations on your new grandson. Have fun!

Happy International Tatting Day! I can't believe how big Isaac has grown! You must be in heaven with those adorable boys to share your life!
I can see the gorgeous pictures, but the text is very hard to read because it seems to be overlaid with some of the decorative wallpaper from one of your other posts! - but I am very glad that you are back to blogging, and your grandsons are very handsome. Isaac has grown so big!!
I have a new grandson too, born on March 13th.
Thank you Diane. He is big, huh? I really am in heaven with our boys. They are so individual that they completely cover each desirable trait. No. I am not smitten! Well, not much.....
Hi Maureen. I know there is a problem with the background and I haven't been able to fix it yet. I am trying. I want my boys to show up well.
Isaac has grown up beautifully and loved his baby brother and little cousin more than I could have imagined. No harm will come to them under his watch!
Congratulations on your new grandson. Have fun!
What handsome boys. Have a blessed day. Madeline
