Miraculous cures

The conversation between Rosa and I in the van this morning. Keep in mind that Rosa has just injured her big toe - running through the house and wacking it on the couch leg. We are not sure if it is a sprain or break but she hobbles a little...

Mum

Yes, Rosa,

When you go to the doctor, if you have a sore toe, does the Doctor kiss it?

Made me smile. Doctors don't have any idea of truly miraculous cures now do they?

Funny boy

Gotta love signs like this that your son makes using his creative/humorous streak:)

Perhaps he made this after I had to scold him for something...

The promised AFTER shots...

Well here, at last are two of my three before/after pictures for you...

That table I picked up from the Tip shop Before shot:

And the After shot (now on ebay with no bidders, yet:(...

And the chair Before...

And After (and yes, my sisters, I did choose a colour other than white;) ...

And here it sits at Joshua's future desk (another paint project:) I am also plan to scour thrift shops/fabric shop? next time for some blue/white striped drill fabric to make a chair cushion. The desk is sitting ready for our Czech guests here (towels & soap are not usually on desks around here:)

...the third project is sitting, patiently waiting for me to ignore the housework and hasten to its bekon call :) Won't be long I am sure

Family Fun!

Juggling camera to photograph dedication service whilst children play up at my ankles and make a racket, doll house shuffles, stripey matching cousins, grampy at his funniest, exploring new corridors aeroplane games with Uncle and empty cupboards in my sister's new home... treasured moments with family actually in the one location (or at least some of us:)
