love letters...

well...the six week nana duties are coming to an end..phew!!

the kids are sad...

i however am a little sad but i am looking forward to some me time..

my craftiness has suffered a lot but really i have been rewarded in another way..

seeing life through my greandchildren ..the millions of questions...and the joy of watching them sleep ...the thank you's...the utter appreciation with no questions asked...

the greeting when i come home from work...EMPTY lunchboxes ...

so how do you keep a 9 and 6 yr old occupied?

you get them to thread little glass beads on your koigu [yarn speak]..all with supervision of course...great little lesson in counting 80 beads pr ball...and great little lesson in concentreation and dexterity...

and saves nana doing it!!!
