I've had the overwhelming urge to write a love letter to my friends and I thought what better day than Valentine's Day to do just that.
A little over a year ago, after 10 years together, my husband and I separated. Please don't worry, both parties involved are much happier people because of it and I promise you this post is not meant to be depressing.
I've spent the last year reconstructing what normal means for myself and my daughter, I've learned a lot and grown so much from it. Through these trials true friends have emerged and shown me that I'm not alone.
Ladies - you know who you are, I dedicate this post to you ♥
And to each and every one of you who takes time out of your day to read my blog - It might sound silly, but knowing you guys were out there reading and interacting with my posts was a reason to keep writing, and without that, I might have fallen into a serious funk. It's kept me going and given me a reason to contribute on a regular basis instead of falling silent.
So to all of my amazing friends here at home and virtual friends from far and wide, thank you for your love and support and...
Happy Valentine's Day!
♥ ♥ ♥

ReplyDeleteHappy Valentine's Day Jane! Isn't the feeling of friendship and connection that you get from a knitting blog just the best? People who don't even know you care about you and what you're doing. I love all of my blogging friends too. :)
ReplyDeleteHappy Valentines Day to you too Jane. Raised a daughter on my own and did great. She gave me four grandchildren and turned out to be a wonderful woman, wife, and mother. Your post had me thinking of the early days. You will be fine :)

ReplyDeleteThank you so much for sharing, and Happy Valentine's Day! I love your blog, your patterns, and think you are awesome. xo
ReplyDeleteYou are so brave to share so openly (although I bet it does feel so good to just say it!) You are an inspiration, not just in the knitting world but as a woman and mother and everything that you are. xo!

Your bravery is inspiring (and I love your patterns). Happy Belated Valentine's Day to you.
ReplyDeleteJane, please please please don't ever stop sharing your knitterly thoughts and beautiful photos with us! I live in an area where there are few knitters and even fewer LYS's, so getting to "come along" with you on all your LYS trips really fills a hole in me. I love your style and perspective, and your posts are informative and fun. Thank you for all you do to put your love for knits and knitting out there!
ReplyDeleteYou're so courageous to share this, Jane. It shows you're in a really good place. I'm really happy for you :) Thanks for sharing yourself and your talents with us!
ReplyDeleteI understand sooo much... It takes time to get back in touch with ourselves. Life is full of surprises !
ReplyDeleteWish you the best for the future :)
