Excited girl.....










There comes a time in every girl's life when



her mother decides that SHE'S ready (the mother, not the girl)



to teach her daughter how to use........



the sewing machine

......and thus the lesson begins.

Now I am the first to admit that patience is not my

strong point, but I think I managed this ok

as we are still talking to each other!

SOMETHING SHOCKING!!!!!
Remember that beautiful new ironing board cover
I so lovingly made????
Well guess what Sam did to it......

He burnt it......

It's now brown and ripped.......

It looks plain awful......

I know, I shouldn't complain because he does iron,

but how could he have done this???????

He knew how much I loved the fabric......

and how proud I was of the cover (sewn without a pattern).

Oh well, it's back to the shop to buy more fabric to make

a new cover.

Rain

We had a lovely spring thunder storm yesterday afternoon. It was very hot and the rain drops were quite large. While I was looking at it out the back, little did I know what was going on out the front.....
........as you can see, #2 and #3 were having a high old time in the rain, while Sam looked on. They were drenched......Happy, but very wet. Then as soon as the storm came, it left.
