So many babies...

God is so good! There are so many babies being born recently! I haven't met any yet in person; but I know 5 babies parents, and two are related to me. I have two 2nd cousins born earlier this year, both girls. Our Chiropractor had a son a few weeks ago. My geometry teacher had a baby girl about a week ago. And I just found out that the old head deacon of our church who moved out to Indiana to be a youth pastor had his 3 child, a boy. I wish I had the yarn and the time to knit them all a blanket! ~~Alyssa

Handmade Knitted Dishcloths, $3 ea.

I am selling my handmade knitted cotton dishcloths for $3 ea. (suggested donation). It's for a fundraiser for my summer camp.



I will take requests on the colors. These are all the colors I have at the moment though. I am gonna look for some cotton yarn online or you can give me the yarn you want to be knitted.

Cygnets [baby swans]

I went on a walk with my mom today and took these pictures. There are 3 little baby swans [cygnets] with their mother on our neighbors pond. Aren't they adorable? I am just wondering WHY thay are called cygnets and not swanlings? Why aren't goslings called Goose-lings? I mean seriously, Ducklings are the only sensible named ones! But anyway, I leave you with my thoughts and these pictures. Enjoy!

NJ Family Camp Meeting




We were only there for Sabbath, but I had a great day! We hung out with some old friends and made some new friends too. I wish I could have participated in the music, oh well, maybe next year.

may

I can hardly believe it's already may! So yeah, I have been denying the fact that it's been May for 12 days and it's finally sinking in.
Life has been pretty good lately. Got 3 zebra danio fish. cleaned my room. started selling my knitted dishcloths for $3 ea. Earned about $40 so far. Can't wait to go to camp! Summer is so close, yet so far away, because of all the schoolwork I gotta do. Well I gotta go get a bite to eat and then we're off to Adventurers! (thats a kids club thing at church, I'm helping my mom with the kiddies, we're gonna make pet rocks).
