five sweet peas - good at being on time - but looks to me like she is good at juggling 2 kids [oops make that 3] and the shopping at the same time too.
It is no great secret I adore clothes for little girls (unless you don’t read my blog or know me in real life and then you’re probably reading this, thinking “um - it is to me???”). When I was a child I did not like dressing frilly or girly. I went from one bad stage to the next… to worse. I think poor Nana was thrilled when my sister turned out to be the ultimate frou frou, frock-wearing, tattle-telling, can’t get the shoes dirty, hair in a bow every day, perfect little girl. (at least for the 1st part of her life) :)
Thankfully, I have a middle-of-the-road child. She doesn’t go nuts to dress up in tutus or put flowers in her hair - but she does let me do these things to her on occasion. And through her, I can see what life would have been like had I not been beating up all the little boys and wearing Chucks with my Sunday School clothes.
I wish I could sew - I wish I could think up things to make for Faith.. and then create them. I am amazingly jealous of the talent people have who can design things for other people to wear. My mother and both my Grandmothers were so talented with the sewing machine. If only I had inherited one iota of stitching ability. If only I had paid attention. Oh well..
I love visiting Rebekah’s blog all the time to see what she’s up to. I loved her picture this week. I can just imagine the pride she feels when she finishes one of her creations. And then to see it on someone she loves. How very cool.

Until next time,
A bit of humour this month (at least I really hope this is meant to be funny) Stockwell
And some serious fixing is getting done over at Kates

What are your talents - are you good at performing? are you an excellent liar or jokester? do you have a secret skill - can you juggle or take off your underwear without removing your clothes? are you good at sports, dancing or walking a tight rope? Are you a good parent, a good listener, skilled at washing the dishes? Do your skills lie in the more esoteric - are you good at magic, excellent at conversation, skilled at love? Or do your talents lie in a more practical direction - are you a fantastic cook a wonderful hostel - a domestic goddess?
