4 Sweet Sisters

Well, I feel this is a timely post. My number is up! It's time for my 1st mammo. Actually I'm a bit young (not by much)to be getting one done, but given my family history as of late I need to have it done. "They" called 3 or 4 times last month and I never scheduled........... I'm a bit of a health nut and procedures, doctors and I don't always get along. Reason. I feel I lose control, have very little say, and can I really trust them (just because they have a degree doesn't mean a hill of beans ((at times)! So even though I don't want this procedure done, and I don't think I'll get into a yearly habit of it I'm going to discuss it with my Husband. Go with his direction and leading. I've had some cause for alarm, but the NP feels it's just cysts. I can get a little crazy and forget that medicine can be used of the Lord. It would be better to find something and go after it naturally now. Then wait and have to do some horrible procedur...

Good Morning Everyone! The day was not as I have planned.... again! I'm sure glad I'm learning not to be tied to my schedule. These are the first of the pillow cases I've started making for Christmas. They ended up taking much longer than I expected because I picked a satin stich style. But they are super sweet and I fear I'll have trouble parting with them. Late yesterday we received a call that someone is coming from out of town to see our home today. Mad dash! We had let it go a bit, but after 3 hours of cleaning and reorganizing it is back in shape. I just have some minor things for this morning. I'm trying not to get too excited/scared about the prospect of this being "the one". It will open a whole new can of worms for us and deepening our trust in the Lord! I have a neat Frugal Friday post coming up this week and I'll also post picks of the vintage house coats I made for each of the chickadees. Next on the list is nighties! Check back if you ca...

Good morning to all. Thank you for all your beautiful Mother's Day greetings and gifts! But a special thank you to my Lord and Savior who made it all possible for me by giving me a wonderful husband and 4 beautiful handmaidens of the Lord. I started out the day with breakfast in bed. Then off to church where my littlest chick wanted me to hold and cuddle her through the whole service.I love when that happens, it's VERY rare these days.Then off to celebrate with the other mothers in our family. Family, friends and swimming for everyone. Boy, was it hot! But it was a nice day to be with family. Everyone is growing up so fast! The picture above is what I gave to each of the ladies in our family. It's my favorite Laundry Bath that we make here at Four Sweet Sisters. I've tweaked the recipe to our personal needs and really like it! We will be selling it here in town starting very soon! Here's the recipe for those who can't wait: 1/2c Washing Soda, 1/2c Borax, 1/4 bar...
