Big sister is on a school trip until late this evening so we made the most of a little time just the two of us, he is using a wildlife magazine to help him draw a swan. I didnt get a picture of it, he loves to draw but soon gets tired and moves on to something else. He has mountains of energy and I find it hard to get him to burn it this time of the year. When he comes home from school he just want to run around and play but with the weather it has been hard to get him outside in the garden.
I managed to get a couple of frames over the weekend to put the cross stitch pictures in,
I like to have a stash of drawing materials for the children to help themselves to whenever creativity strikes them. Please note however that this is only a VERY SMALL amount of their craft stuff, it is literaly all over the house and garage. Pens, pencils, play doh, paint, paper, books and every other craft thing you can imagine fills every nook of the house.
I wanted to show you a story book that my son has made, it is "The Story's of the Twins" and apparently is a 4 in 1 story book (I will show you one)
One day two twins were playing passies on the beach. Then they,
saw a boat coming towards them.
After that they raced eachother.
In the end it started to rain.
THE END....
I am sure that it will become a classic story to be heard by many many generations to come. Passies is his choice of words and not mine however it didnt feel right to stop his creative outburst by pointing out to him that it didnt really make sense.

I knew what he meant by "passies" (at least I think I did!!!)
It's been a beautifully sunny day but so windy hasn't it? I need to go to the allotment but I'm hoping it will be less windy tomorrow!
Oh bless him, thats lovely, i knew what he meant by passies also. Magus is the first Stonewylde book, and I can't recommend it enough. Its the best read ever! Kit Berry has a website you can order from, signed copies! There is also a Stonewylde Forum once your hooked which is great, you will find a lot of us bloggers on there. Take Care PixieD. XXX
Glad to see you getting a little bit of sunshine. It's funny how it can lift your spirits to see that little yellow fellow. I know what you mean about longing fo rthe hols. In my previous life as a teacher there was always a count down from about day three of the new term.
Hi Sarah,
Thanks for leaving a comment and offering your services for our new blog. The things we are asking for are any agencies that offer support or funding to new businesses. Any good supply shops. The main priority is to find out any craft fairs going on in the area, big or small. Even if it is at short notice someone might take a look and feed back any information that might be relevant if they have another fair on.
Hope this is not to much for you, any information you can get hold of would be greatfully received.
Thanks

Hi Sarah, thank you for your lovely comments. You're definatley close judging by the great pics that you've posted. His little storybook is so cute, you'll have to put that in a memory box. Maybe we could help Vanessa together as I don't drive- what do you think?

Thank you all for your kind commects about my sons book, it is quite a feat for him to put pen to paper. He has the ideas in his head but just has no interest in writing things down. He would rather be running around the house driving me crazy. It is certainly somethig that i will keep.
