NordenBladet – This morning Ivanka Shoshana (9) decided that she did not want to go to school and I did not force her to go. So, she stayed at home and I instead of making news have practised crafts since early morning! During these activities, we have hugged several times, and I have said to her that I love her a lot. We have had a very productive and great mother-daughter day – Ivanka painted two pictures, I finished two unfinished pictures of witches and knitted two bon-bon hats as well. Making handicraft is extremely relaxing and pleasurable, I feel like I have been reborn.
Ivanka Shoshana was so inspired that we had to change her clothes twice – and creating art on the white tablecloth is sth. only Helena-Reet can do. 😀 The paintings have dried by now and two of them are already hanging on the wall. I will probably pack the hats and if there is someone’s birthday coming I will add a hat to the present. I quite often add self-made items to gift packs, for example, various handmade jewellery (necklaces, bracelets, earrings), knitwear (scarves, hats, bags for mobile phones), dried herbal tea (I grow peppermint in my garden and dry it), paintings-drawings, etc. I hope that someday I will also have my self-written books and top-quality beauty products created under the brand named E&S (Elisheva&Shoshana)!
Oh… a bit of “kids don’t lie” rubric information too… When we had finished our doing things together and she was heading to watch some videos she said all of a sudden: “Mummy is fat and daddy is tall”. What can I say about it? – a true artist catches the heart of the whole with just a couple of specific details.
