Rainy Mornings

Rainy mornings are best spent with a cup of coffee, bread, papers with Kyoto Cafe playing in the background.

A blankie

I have just started knitting a blankie for Hamie.

As with many other projects, they remain an UFO for a long long time. So, i am putting this down as a reminder that i HAVE to complete this.

But as it is, i have run into some teething problems. It is huge!

I have lost count timeless times and am contemplating redoing everything.

I think i shall go work on it now.

Here is a picture of the little girl whom i am doing it all for:

Toddlerling

I can remember exactly when she took her first steps but she is definitely toddlerling along now.

It was probably 3 weeks ago. She turned to catch a toy and took a few tentative steps.

In the short period of a few weeks she has progressed to taking an inital wobbly 5, then 10, and now maybe 20-30 steps.

It's really a simple thing to an adult, but such a big thing to a little child. Her eyes and face lights up as she makes her way across the room. And as i look at her walking towards me, my heart swells with pride.
