"I think our chronological age doesn't really matter. (Tell that to our youth oriented society!) It's how young at heart we are and that we can still contribute to our world. Retirement can free us up to be able to give our love to those in…"
P. Jeanne Haessler replied to Lauren Osornio's discussion Greetings!"That's very amusing Jen. I've got friends from 5 years old to 94 and I guess to some I'm an "ancient of days" and to others I'm a "young sprout". Age is all relative I guess. I remember going to see the movie…"

My name is Lauren. I am 63, have two grown daughters and one grandson who just turned 18. I have been crocheting since my daughters were babies and I crocheted their first baby blanket. Now I am so grateful to find K-A-S where I know that my meditative moments crocheting will benefit children in need. My church knitting group has started making squares to send to K-A-S as well. I will be sending vests and squares soon. Thank you so much for doing this. What a loving project!See More

We run a challenge each month. This month it is ‘Make it in May' and we would love you to participate, especially knowing that whatever you make will soon benefit one of our children.
