2 of my granddaughters calling me last night to asking when they are coming over again so I can fix the arm on 1 of their little fairy dolls (a friend of Tinkerbell). It warms my heart to think they believe I can fix anything. They also asked me how to set the clock I gave them (it works with an iPhone)...over the phone. I had to tell them to ask their mom or stepdad that one or bring it back over next time they come.
3 of my granddaughters asking me when we are having another sewing lesson. So far this summer they have made an apron and 2 pincushions. The girls are 9, 9and 7. We have individual lessons on threading the machine, winding a bobbin, sewing straight seams, ironing without getting burned and most of all…having fun doing it! They have an adopted Auntie that’s having a baby soon. The next thing each girl willmake is at least 2 burp cloths for her and then a couple more to donate. I think it’s important for them to developthe love of giving.
