We eight kids like to potter around productively...Mama wants to remember these delightful days when we have all grown up and left home, so we are creating a record for her.

Child's Play

Today it rained (which is fantastic news for the garden)...and so we couldn't sit outside to read. We each got a little something to do...and then instead of starting Pinnochio, we listened to music from 1685-1740, because Mama wanted to do embroidery (see her quilt on the coffee table?)!




J12 is handsewing little animal pin cushions, K8 knitting a bag on circular needles, T2 is "cooking", M4 is making a boat out of the mancala game, L6 doing the same with mobilo, K9 is building a castle and ends up designing a canon which even works, and J11 is establishing a town for the Playmobil men.


After an hour of Bach, Vivaldi and Purcell, we jumped into the 21st century and listened to Hillsong.
