My oldest WIP…
…of the knitting kind would have to be Madli’s Shawl. I cast on for her over a year ago and she sits in her basket barely getting any love at all. This is through no fault of her own, it’s all mine.
Now my very oldest WIP at this time of the non-knitting kind would have to be…Dobby. Unlike Madli who is inarticulate and lacks the ability to scream at me for attention, Dobby is definitely in my face daily and getting the attention she needs.
You see, we have reached a very special milestone. Her 18th birthday.

As you can see in this photo, she is the epitome of grace (that’s pumpkin guts she’s snorting there, in case you’re wondering). She gets the gracefulness from my side of the family - the yelling and the inability to do math were the gifts she received from her father’s side. ;o)
I’m all emotional at this turn of events so I’d like to ask you all to help me in wishing her a happy 18th, thanks!
P.S. to Dobby - the answer? is no. I don’t care how old you are, you aren’t getting a door on your room and I’m not gonna stop logging your internet usage. Privacy is a privilege! Love you!

Happy Happy Birthday! Hope it is better than my 18th, on which day I had to do a take-home Calculus final that was one of the worst exams of my life. Ugh! Eat some cake instead.

Bryce would like to add that you smell like a monkey, and you look like one too. Corra keeps on saying cornpuffs for some unknown reason.
Hope you have a fabulous birthday! Wish I could be there

Happiest of Birthdays! I can’t believe you are 18! Wow that makes your Mom, old! (Yes Jess, I know that makes me older;-)
We are very proud of you and I know you will make mature decisions now that you are an adult.
Oh, sorry I had to pick myself up off the floor, I just fell off the chair, laughing!
Seriously, I know you have a good head on your shoulders and you know how to use it.
Happy Birthday to a Beautiful Young Lady!

(By the way, Madli was a long WIP for me as well. She is finished now, but man, she certainly took a while. Those nupps are a pain in the bum.)
