It’s one of those special simple memories I want to hold in my heart forever.
Me making fudge in the kitchen and Mr. Conductor sitting at the table with a small box of dominos.
Mama: Whatcha makin’ Sir? Mr. C: I’m setting up my wooden soldiers, Mama.
A moment in time, when small black rectangles stand at attention and become a line or marching soldiers. With the smell of chocolate in the background.
Ah, the wonder of it all.Oh---- and so you can experience a bit of the magic yourself- I’m posting my super secret fudge recipe shortly (not so secret anymore). You supply the dominos.
My Husband (DH)-
Mr. Steady
My rock and biggest supporter. The glue that keeps the family sane. He is like deep, deep water- it takes a lot to see a ripple.
DD12- Our Maiden in Waiting- By the world's standard she's a 'tween'. By ours and the Lord's- this is the time of her years of preparation. She is eagerly learning what it means to keep a home and daily becomes more and more of a helper to her Mama.
DD9- Sassafras My Sassy middle child. She holds her own so sweetly and has such an empathetic heart. While real Sassafras is used for flavoring- She is that added sweet flavor to our family.
DS5- Mr. Conductor- The train aficionado in the family. He's the little man and best helper around! He's also the biggest Oreo fiend in the family.
