A RoundUp

A little caching up post of some of the other things which have been going on over the last week or so...

Another reading challenge completed thanks to the library and a nudge to get Gabe more confident with his reading. 


Lots of penal letters, this time to France which by their own choice they translate. 



Some little treasure bags Gabe & Thea wanted to make out of the African cloth we still have. 


Brighid's crosses made using art straws, after they saw mine made from straw reeds at the beginning of the month. 


In celebration of the goddess or saint depending on your persuasion, we also made a small triskele each. The third spiral symbol which is seen all over Celtic lands and signifies the triads of past, present & future, mind, body and spirit, life, death and rebirth and of course the triple aspect of the goddess in maiden, mother and crone. 


We used 1.5mm copper and it was really easy on the hands apart from the starting curve. 





Ayla has a new favourite thing... the kids have decided she must be the next Mozart, I think we need to take a break from the Mozart composer study for a few weeks! 


Now that spring is firmly in the air, she is spending more time outside and its definitely one of Orion's go to places when its his turn to look after her while I do food prep.
