Since MrWilson has joined us in Chicago, I can up my R&R time - and file another report on what it is like to have Christmas with an 8 yr old and a 6 yr old. My strategy when my kids were young was that they got one present on Dec 24th and it was supposed to entertain them all day. My grandkids like Legos, and I found a really fun jigsaw puzzle that is just rows and rows of little Lego people. I hope my daughter had it on her radar to have the puzzle table cleared off so that the kids could start working on it on the 24th. I hope I remembered to buy myself one of those headlights that you wear on your head to illuminate whatever you are working on. I had to buy one when they lived in Toronto because the kitchen was so dark I couldn't see anything. They laughed at me at first -- but, then I noticed that they were borrowing it. Their puzzle table is not well lit at all. Grrrrr. Although I am guessing that working on jigsaw puzzles would be a horrible drain on my brain.

Beautiful work - love the 'whoops'.
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas!
Thank you FinnBadger! (I think it actually IS a feather, but in my hustle & bustle of doing so much, I probably wrote to Jean that I tried to match the "leaf". Whoops! Oh well! -- I was in a leaf state-of-mind when doing it, I guess!) :D
