That is so wonderful. You are a great mom to encourage him and the fact that he wants to be around you at 15 is proof of how well you are raising him. Love your square, I am waiting until next week to weigh. I don't want to get discouraged if I weigh too soon before the loss is measurable.

Marymc my son is a mommas boy, always has been and will probably always be. He is the one I'm gonna have to kick out when it's time. LOL. He has been watching my lose the weight and that has motivated him. He got excited when he lost a third of a pound.

This last 2 days I have been trying to deicde what kind of quilt I want to make. There are a lot of quilts that I love to do but I know I will never get them done, so I am going to pick some of those blocks and use some of me "Favourite Frabic" that I have been keeping for that special quilt. What Quilt could be any more special than this one. Will post my frist block when I get it finished. Good luck everyone on this adventure we are taking together.
