This took me over a month to complete on size 0 needles, but it was totally worth it. I'm obsessed with how fine the gauge is.
The heel makes me happy.
Ta-da!

I hope my hubby loves them. Of course I made them out of necessity, and he went and bought twelve pairs of socks whilst these were in the making. Oh well!

On a side note, today is Liam's third birthday. I feel sad, but not overwhelmingly so like I used to. I still miss him every day.

Today I feel thankful for all that there is to be happy for in my life. The scent of vanilla filling my kitchen. Warmth. The lingering taste of good coffee. This space to write about it all. Thank you. What are you thankful for today?

those are beautiful socks! I'm sure he's going to love them.
I just went back and read your old posts about Liam. It just breaks my heart. I admire your strength for sharing, and your ability to grow from this experience. I'll be thinking of you guys today. Happy Birthday, Liam.
Those socks look super warm!
Do you have any baking plans for the holidays?
You are in my thoughts today.
I too just went back and read your old posts about Liam. I know you've mentioned losing your baby before, but I had no idea of the circumstances. I'm so very very sorry for you both, and I wish I could give you a big long warm hug here as tears roll down my cheeks, and my heart breaks for you.
I'm sorry I can't say anything about those fantastic socks right now, and how amazed and impressed I am about your super-long blogging history, but I'm glad you can. You are brave, and you are buoyant. And you are wonderful.
Lighting a little birthday candle for Liam in my heart.

I am so sorry for Liam's passing. I am glad that you are able to celebrate his birthday in some small way to remember him.
Lovely socks, just lovely. I went back and read you old posts. Losing a baby is a uniquely empty and raw loss. My heart goes out and you are in my thoughts.
Oh Sarah, I didn't know about Liam. I am so very sorry for your loss -- so heartbreaking. Wishing you peace, love and light...
Happy Birthday to your sweet son.

First, those socks are amazing. What a great great gift! I am so jealous of your ability and talent!
Second, I truly believe that families are forever. This seemingly long life is in reality such a short time in the eternities, just a knot in the string. I also believe that God is our literal Father, and being such, He provides a way for us to accomplish much. Liam waits for you, and someday you will have the opportunity to rear that little boy; only imagine rearing *your* child in a perfect world without anger and strife, just beauty and love and complete truth. I know this will happen,and I know you will be an awesome mom.
In the meantime, know we care and love you and hope that Liam's memory stays sweet everyday as it is today. Hugs and much appreciation for sharing him with us.
