Five-Minute-Friday.
A blog idea where you pick a subject and write about it for five minutes.
Simple, huh?
I got the idea from my dear sister, Carra, and have decided to try to implement it onto my blog – some, if not most Fridays…we’ll see how it goes! 🙂
My first topic for Five-Minute-Friday is the one who gave me the idea, my sister, Carra. 🙂
So, here are my five-minute thoughts about my sister, Carra. 🙂
These are out-of-order, as you can see, but I decided to leave them they way they are.
The added-in thoughts are in italics.
Enjoy!
- Loves to crochet. {She has crocheted some of the most beautiful work I’ve ever seen. I think, if she were back in France in the 18th century, someone would track her down and pay her some very fine fortune to make lace for the Versailles – sounds silly, but I really mean it!}
- Loves to help others – even to a fault at times. {Sweet Carra, before you protest, you must confess, helping has gotten you into some…well….. 😀 }
- Is out going – she drags me to things that are really very good for us, but that I’d otherwise shun if not for her willingness to try something new. {Like…ahem…that small ruminant convention up in western NC. I would have never gone if not for K. Thanks, sissy!}
- Loves to cook – Oh! does she love to cook! {Cakes, sweets, main dishes, side dishes, dessert dishes – anything that’s difficult and complicated is game for her!}
- Decorates cakes. {Lovely. And someone’s birthday is coming up…time to start thinking and having fun with sugar and color again!}
- Can figure math in her head like a whiz. 🙂 I don’t even try to compete (unless I have a calculator! 🙂
- Will drive us places, even if she doesn’t particularly want to drive, because she knows I don’t like to drive. {Isn’t she so sweet – but you should tell me when you don’t want to drive more, sissy! I’ll drive for you.}
- Is very giving; she’ll give her time, her effort, her things, her work to others with so much love. {Crocheted afgahns, blankets, tablecoths (and these aren’t cheap gifts if you were to buy them!}
- Loves farming. I think that’s her truest love in life (apart from her service to her Savior!) is her farming. She loves working with the goats, dreams of farming a cattle dairy with hundreds of cows, loves the hard, hot work, the quiet days.
- Loves to read. {When she has a good book you can hardly tear her from it!}
- Loves to write poems.
- Loves to play music. {Piano, Violin, and singing; she has a beautiful singing voice.}
- Loves to meet new people.
- Loves. {She loves to just love people; her family and friends, people in need. One day this gift will be used, sissy! Just trust Jesus for it!}
And that’s one of my two very dear sisters in a five-minute nutshell. 🙂
Love you bunches, K!
