Handicrafts Continue




With the visible changes in the seasons some new schedules, interests and routines are emerging. Baths seem to increase with the mud level. Thankfully people are sleeping in a little (6:30...it's doable). Aria and Ben have both been enthralled with corking. They have been working on things for their stuffed animals; rugs, collars, leashes. Their concentration is amazing, and they couldn't look cuter working side by side.

Elias has been finding sunny spots around the yard to whittle in. He has been working on designs and patterns. For a little while there was a secret project for a friend's birthday. It was something he never tried before and while it wasn't exactly how he imagined it, he was sooo thrilled to give it.

Elias will love my yard then and I have a very large collection of whittling knives. The mud is insane here also my pond looks like a mud pile more then a pond!
