Is it any wonder that sleep is an elusive beast these days? In amongst all that, one little voice has been quietly and persistently asking to be heard.
and for days I have felt like a harassed mother saying not now, not now, there is absolutely no time....but I guess it is now after all.
He has the sweetest little face
ReplyDelete...and you forgot to mention that birthday celebrations have to fit in there somewhere too...somehow...have a great day. I love the new boyfriend (or should that be toyboy?) Oh, and enjoy the screenprinting thingy tomorrow too.
ReplyDeletelove this new doll Jodie! and Im not much of doll person so thats saying something.
ReplyDeleteAnd soupy as your brain may be, it's also brilliant and inspiring xo
I spy a boy .... who wants to be knight, or perhaps a pirate... or something else altogether. Either way, it's clear has a good imagination!
ReplyDeleteI just can't get over the fact that you EVER thought you were in charge!
ReplyDeleteWishing you every kind of planetary alignment.
I seriously thought librarians were boring and serious people... who did nothing other than reading books. I hope your school rewards you for your hard work!
ReplyDeleteHow could you resist! ♥
ReplyDeleteif most of that is for the school play - they aren't paying you enough!!!
ReplyDeleteAll of the above but what MANIC FUN!
ReplyDeleteI think you need one of those craft clocks you showed in a past post!
ReplyDelete(Good luck with it all).
Lucas always liked the librarian when he was at school, I expect she was something like you. Slow down or you will pass yourself your new baby is tooooo cute.
ReplyDeleteBlimey Jodie, that's an impressive to-do list! I just love that your post opened with those immortal words 'bamboo-framed crepe paper elephants' :o)
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to 'meeting' your new little friend. Have fun with the screen printing - I'm mighty envious about that one!

He totally looks like he could be a hairy hooligan to me (from our favourite books, how to train your dragon.. If you need to get on and work and get totally lost in loveliness, try listening to the audiobooks of them, read by David Tennant)
ReplyDeleteWho couldn't use a few extra hours each day? :)
ReplyDeleteOhhhh, who sweet is that face??!! ;0
ReplyDeletePins make very nice eyes!
ReplyDeleteOmigoodness, Jodi, Who is this new character with the winsome smile? I think I'm falling a little in love here.
ReplyDeleteHe's lovely jodi! Can we see pics of the moving bamboo wings too? Sounds interesting....
ReplyDeleteYou are in charge! Even with such a list, you decided to play (tho I think a lot of the list was fun..& intriguing). Never let anything tell you otherwise. On an earlier post, those poor arms sticking out of the box really got to me!
ReplyDeleteForgot to check e-mail box. I am seriously interested in your list. Wish you could see the thoughts flying thru my mind!
