Today’s readings are interesting. In 2 Samuel, God tells Nathan to tell David things. God asks why David hasn’t built a house for God yet? I know that it is Solomon, David’s son, who will build the temple and God does tell that to Nathan and that God will not abandon Solomon like he did…
Today’s toy is another Hoppy the bunny I designed and crocheted. I am still working on the pattern for the Huggable Heart, so I haven’t started the Hoppy pattern yet. Video is needed for Hoppy since I had different numbers for where to place the shaping of the face with different yarn. This time, I…
OT means ordinary time. Today’s first reading is from 2 Samuel. David rejoices in the Lord while moving the Ark to the city of David. He then feeds the people. I love to read Bible stories that correlate to Jesus in the New Testament. People are fed and nourished, those who believe. In the gospel,…
Today’s toy is an octopus. I am using acrylic minis and sometimes I run out before finishing a toy, so with the octopus, I crocheted the body in blue, the belly in pink, and the tentacles in purple. I shared a picture with family and got no response. It is cute! This toy didn’t have…
Today we pray for the unborn. I pray that women will want the life growing within them. I did not have a chance to get pregnant. I didn’t pursue any medical intervention because I thought God was in control and He just didn’t want me to be a mom. He had other plans for me….
Today’s toy is a bear in a honey pot. I have a pin and wanted to create a toy that resembled it. I used leftovers from my temperature blanket of 2023, Hobby Lobby’s Yarn Bee Soft Secret in honey and cocoa. I put floral stones in the bottom for weight. Keeping this toy…
OT means ordinary time. Another Sunday, so we have two readings. In the first reading, God sends Jonah to Nineveh to warn the people to repent! They do repent, everyone wearing sackcloth. God decides to not punish them. Jonah does not want to be prophet, but he must have been very good at it! In…
Today’s toy is Hoppy the bunny. I woke up very early one day this week and decided to design a bunny that had no stuffing. There are many floppy toys out there and I know someone would appreciate no stuffing. Since I still used a tight gauge, the toy does sit up on its own….
OT means ordinary time. Today’s gospel is two verses. The crowd came to the house where Jesus was eating and those inside the house call Jesus crazy (Mk 3:20-21) Often in Jesus’ time, people would conclude after an inexplicable occurrence, he’s crazy of the devil is in him. In this passage, they say Jesus is…
Today’s toy is Bonnie, an experiment in different shapes in a toy. I crocheted her with large feet and stubby legs. There are even toes! She has a barrel body, with her head attached. A foam roller was placed in her neck for stability. I played around with the ears and gave her three loops…
