Handmade gifts
On the off chance one has a little bit of time on their hands in the last month of the year they can always get crafty.
Here we have mouse candy canes made out of felt, with a pom pom nose & googly eyes. With, of course, a candy cane tail.
One of the canes broke so I gave it to the kids. I asked what they thought they tasted like. Isaiah replies "mouse tails".
I feel unwell today. To top it off I had a toddler up half the night for no reason making my sleep short, light and broken. I feel wrecked. The toddler is over-tired and cranky & so is the sister who was woken up several times in the night.
They were screaming over a dolls pram from the moment they got out of bed to the moment I hoicked it out the front door stating if anyone gets that pram they will be in big trouble. Fighting is over!!
The older kids got breakfast happening for the little kids, changed a nappy, and have been entertaining the little-r kids.
Yep, that's how unwell I feel. Hopefully with time & rest I'll be back to normal.
The other day I allowed Amalia to wrap up a gift. She did well. Loads of sticky tape and strange folding/scrunching of paper.
I might get Isaiah to wrap some more today if he's up for the challenge.
Anyway there's rest to be had, children to be watched and cuddled to have...
Remain Blessed xx
