Immediate action

What do you do when you realise that your firstborn doesn't know one of the most famous and prominent buildings in your home town?

After the initial astonishment immediate action is required.


So we went on top of it. And had a lovely strawberry cake there.

Elba

Ohhh, I love school projects.

And since I am who I am, I am not satisfied unless my kid's school project looks... as good as it possibly can.

This time the task was to make a raised-relief map. After a bit of brainstorming how to make the relief, I came up with the idea of coloured foam sheets. Easy to work with, easy to cut, easy to glue...

So, I'm proud to say that with only a tiny little bit of my help, MiniMojcek Nr. 1 came up with this. The island of Elba.


And yes, this was the first time I let him use my scalpel :-)

Amaryllis

You know the feeling when you hardly get out of bed because you know what's ahead of you.

A long uninspirational and uncreative day, full of things that have to be done but none of which you actually want to do.

Yeah, that day.

What makes a day like this a little bit better is what awaited me in the garden when I opened the window shutters.
