{life with a curious and crazy almost 11 yr old}
What a consummate little hostess with the mostess, my little peach is – at the Mother’s Day Picnic she was complimented on her conversational skills, her whipping up some fresh whip cream and serving dessert, and her knowledge/information about our homestead. On the morning of we ran out to the garden nursery and she picked all the flowers for the porch and specially picked out flowers for all the ‘mothers’ that might join us.
At the picnic her uncle gave her his supercool cardboard chair that he made for a MECA project when he was schooling there – she loves it. She immediately decorated it as her faerie throne. I’m sure there will be a procession and a proclamation at some point!
Now she’s helping Josh finish up our studio room – she’s dusting the floor before we poly-whey it, and then she will probably help him install the lighting fixtures and build the shelves, she loves building. She’s a real helper sometimes (even if she doesn’t always like her picture being taken- ha!).
I think we’ll keep her.
