God Moments
I love it when you are having a regular day and then God shows up and makes it special! That just happened to me, while I was working out. I was listening to music and "Healer" by Kari Jobi came on, and I found myself crying and worshiping God before I knew it. It is in those moments that I see God's face and fall in love with Him all over again. Love it!

Bowtie Baby Hat
Well, I'm about to have another niece in about a month. So, it is baby-knitting season at my house! I love this Baby Bowtie pattern and it can be found here for free. The only changes I have made are that instead of the first few rows in garter stitch, I changed it to stockinette stitch so that it will roll up and make a cute brim. The wrong side of the stockinette stitch is what you see rolled up as the brim. I also used circular needles instead of DPNs.
