It is our last day of swimming lessons until the new session begins in January. The little one has the best teacher ever. She went from bouncing around on the steps of the pool saying "but you have to hold onto me the whole time...." to swimming a whole ten feet or so, all by herself. This teacher deserves a big silver statue, or maybe one of those vintage glass glitter ones. (She is getting a little journal)
During lessons each week the sweetest little girl, about 4 or 5 years old, comes to sit next to me and watch me sew while her brother has lessons. She was so interested in what I was doing, that I began making sure I had new projects each week.
We put together a little pile of fun art stuff and a little bird journal for her. She liked the birds best she said. So Merry Christmas to Brooke.
Oh my goodness, Lisa, that bird journal is the sweetest thing ever.
Is "wow, you're talented" getting monotonous? Should I branch out and start calling you other things such as "fabu" and "totally rad"?

This little bird journal is adorable.
I vote for totally rad :)

That is so thoughtful, Lisa. I bet you made her day.
