A quilt and a princess...

My sweet friend, Tena, brought over this very special quilt that she finished for us this summer. The middle piece of this quilt is 1/4 of the original quilt she began making for Jonathan last year. In THIS earlier post, I showed pictures of the rest of the quilt that she made into preemie blankets that she donated to the hospital in Fort Worth where Jonathan was born. Thank you so much, Tena...this is such a special treasure that will always remind us of our sweet boy, and will have a prominent place in our home!

Tena's dad is battling aggressive thyroid cancer, and also has pneumonia--would you please lift her dad and her whole family up in prayer??

And for those of you that know me and have been to my house, you know that my Betsy LOVES to sleep on pillows. She thinks she is a human, and therefore must use pillows and lounge on the couch. We are suckers for her, so most of the time, no matter how many times I straighten the pillows, the couch usually looks like this, and usually Betsy is right in the corner...



But the other night, she found her ultimate Princess moment...at the top of 5 of the pillows on our bed! What a princess!

Is she spoiled or what?!
