...this week of...

...happiness at watching my children play with friends they haven't seen for a while, getting our rhythm right this week by being mindful of downtime, a long train journey to my parents, a day out with my extended family

...sadness at a friend who is struggling with one her friends right now, their friendship runs long and deep but is not working and leaving my friend in knots

...reading After Me Comes the Flood by Sarah Perry, to the children  The Hut-Man's Book by G.D. Fisher and these picture books* you can read a short review of them here, 225. Another Fine Mess by Tony Bonning, 226.  I absolutely love animals by Lauren Child, 227. Hickory Dickory Dog by Alison Murray

...creating a slipper, a sleeve, a hat

...learning about dinosaurs, planes, fruit, seeds, blackberries, rhythm

...thinking about our weekly rhythm 

...hoping to visit a museum with dinosaurs this week

...wondering about science and focusing on it a bit more

...looking forward to spending the day with my great aunt, she is wonderful company at 97!

  2. my granddaughter is totally into Dino's right now, too. I have been going to the library every Friday and checking out as many books as I can. I love when they find something that they want to learn more about. 97!! WOW!! the changes that she has witnessed. I would love to know her stories. Hope you have a lovely week, too!
