i found this picture of the girls with jack . . i'm amazed that they are all dressed in matching nightgowns. i thought it looked very valentine-like! jack is probably two or three years old in this picture. it was taken about nine or ten years ago.
happy valentine's day!
morgana read about abe lincoln . .
and together with chanda we read about st. valentine . .
and about valentine's day . .
our favorite story was about a town in loveland, colorado, where they crown a miss valentine and a cowboy cupid! the book says he wears a cowboy outfit and carries a bow and arrow, like cupid!
working on geometry . .
parallelograms . .
we paced off the perimeter of the bed in the living room, and the kitchen.
chanda drew nesting squares . .
and then morgana sang her hymn to aphrodite again . . it sounded very pretty.
i finally finished my liesl today. i needed to shorten one of the sleeves . .
and sew on a button.
korrina sewed a skirt! and then ran off to a guys and dolls rehearsal.
chanda and i wrapped deychen's birthday gift. she had a party this evening to celebrate her half birthday as she is always in vermont and away from her city friends for the real birthday!
Cute picture, you can already tell who is who. You finished great projects. Flora said the liesl looks like a bedscarf I have from my grandmother. I like it for those cold nights here.
ReplyDeletei love seeing the child in the grown up . . or vice versa! your bedscarf must be a feather and fan. it's such a beautiful and classic lace pattern. i love knitting it, but really need to graduate to a new lace pattern one of these days!!!!
Deletewool is sooooo warm. i'm amazed how cozy my liesls keep me even with all the lace holes . . !
I guess I mean more the shape, the knit is a very plain pattern.
DeleteYes, it's so nice to have warm shoulders.
