Knitting

Yeah!
I've finally taught myself how to knit. We went to a local yarn shop about three weeks ago and there was a lady there knitting, Dani watched her for a while and then looked at different garmentst and bags that were on display. He got it in to his head that I should learn. Cree me, I tried.Years ago a bought a pair of needles, mama wasn't happy about the wasted money. I checked out a book from the library and tried. But, no luck.
Bueno, I thought about it and watched a movie on how to knit online www.knittinghelp.com I actually watched parts of the movie twice, it kept getting stuck. I sat down two days ago with mi papi, he showed me what he remembered, which was the knit stitch, I was surprised considering his mama taught him when he was a boy and I doubt he practiced much after he left Peru. I practiced and then gave up. I either droped or added stitches. Cuando me frusto no logro nada.
Then today I felt like I could do it. So, I sat down and fumbled. I had no idea what to do with a needle in each hand. I figured, if I'm going to learn, I have to figure out how to hold them. And once I was comfortable, the stitches just happened.
I asked Dani porque he was so sure I could learn, he was willing to pay for private instruction! I figure if I teach myself, I can use the money he would have spent on classes on something else! LOL. Dani dijo "When I met you me enamore de tu voz. I knew that the woman who owned that voice would accomplish everything she wanted and would do much in this world." No one had ever said that to me. You can. Tu puedes. And you know, I can believe him, because I did and I have.

On another note, I was talking to Iva this morning, I kept repeating over and over how much I love her and I think she felt it because she grinned from ear to ear. If she could have laughed she would have she was so happy. Juro, Papa Dios must have looked down on earth and seen how much I wanted to be a mom and thought to Himself, Zoraida has gone throuth so much that I think I'll pick two of my most beautiful, inteligent and obedient angels and send them to her as bebitos. These kids are my angels. Daniel is my dream come true and Iva is my surprise.
