Great feeling. Thank you Yvette (and Victoria!) for that!

Mazoji pukuote yra gimtadienio noras, o as gavau galimybe ji ivykdyti. Geras jausmas. Dekui uzsakovam uz ji!

Pick your favourite:

Zodi – the madam. If she would have lips, I would have a half  ‘eaten’ lipstick.

Zee – the cleaner. I might regret if he goes. Such a helper.

dina

Zag – my wannabe star. Only he does not know yet himself what sort of star he wants to be. I hope the shining one…

d

and Zoog – he’s the shy one

dinc2

You already met my darling vegetarian.

I so wanted to get a picture of all of them together… and this is the best one I’ve got.

Quite big, quite nice, eats spinach and other greens. And keeps on turning all of the lights in the house off. He wants to scare us… but no luck so far.

He’s a dinosaur and will be offered for sale tomorrow along with a few more of the same fearsome kind.

My little boy, who only turned 4 a month ago is facing reception year and being the youngest in the class (would his birthday have been 2 days later – he would have been the oldest in the class… regulations, oh we so not like you sometimes!!!) My precious one did not like school too much in the first 2 weeks and it was turning into a bit of a worry, but now he only goes half a day till he’s a bit more into the whole big new routine,  I’ve developed what’s best to describe as a bit of a restless mind. I’m wondering (we recommend to get your mind wondering too – ‘Deschooling Society’ by Ivan Illich) it’s not just the age that bothers me…  So I’m not in where I was hoping to be, free 5 days a week till 3pm with kids being happy at school (although that’s coming, apparently), at the moment – I’ve very little time in space for working out my own thing. Kids come first. Most of the time…

Crafting, don’t give up on me just yet, I’m thinking of you everyday! Thinking too much, should just do something.

Some of my summer produce:

Apolline and her baby live in France now. I hear little owner is happy.
