I love the swing..........




''Let's go on the swing, to swing swing swing and swing,
until the school bell rings,
then off we go to see my siblings''

Look what I made .....





I'm so proud of myself. Here are my first two handmade crochet handbags for girls (even though one of my models is a boy ;). The blue one is for my daughter and the other one I am going to give it as a present. I'm sure that the girl will use it and hold lots of treasures inside it!! Have a good Wednesday :)

What's with the washing machine?? little missy likes to watch the machine and she gets pretty excited too!!!

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY

Mother's day without your mother isn't good and I have to admit that I don't like mother's day. 'I must be selfish' why shouldnt' I ? I have three beautiful children and I am blessed to be a mother, but still I can never be 100% happy on mother's day. My mother died on May 20th 1998, just a month before my wedding and the last time we took my mother out was on mother's day of that year. She was diagnosed with cancer a year before and fought for a year with unbearable pain, always thinking that it will be over. I will never forget her beautiful smile and the love she had for us.

This morning I was reading a blog and by chance went into another blog. This other blog had a beautiful post about mother's day. I read it twice and kept looking at the photos and then I decided to copy her. So here you are mum, 'HAPPY MOTHER's DAY' where ever you are.



My mother, my brother and myself. This is how I mostly remember my childhood days. My father worked abroad and when he was home he worked long hours. So my mother took us every where, we never missed a thing and we usually were the last ones to leave too!!

I Love You Mom!
Mom's smiles can brighten any moment,
Mom's hugs put joy in all our days,
Mom's love will stay with us forever
and touch our lives in precious ways...
The values you've taught,
the care you've given,
and the wonderful love you've shown,
have enriched my life
in more ways than I can count.
I Love you Mom!

What will happen to the clothes if they are left in the basket and not folded immediately ?

Well the little fairy who lives with us will crawl , grab the bag and she will very neatly fold them :).......just like magic!! not to mention that she will also leave a blob or two of her dribbling!!
