collection of wooden diggers, trucks and trains around the
playroom and decided something different was called for.
So this year, we took a bit of a gamble and
decided to give our two little boys a dolls house.
My dad very kindly agreed to make it and duly set to work.
The results were I must say rather lovely.....
I had a most enjoyable time making little bits and pieces,
buying a few items of furniture and a most beautiful tiny
family to live there.
And the result???? A dolls house that has been enjoyed by both
boys, perhaps a little more by the smaller of the two, but none
the less a welcome change from diggers....
Not in the least, I suspect for their mother.....
And the new little occupants you ask? How are they fairing?
Well its amazing what interesting little parallels develop......
Mama doesn't say, but I think she secretly wishes the
baby would go to sleep a bit earlier......
And the tree, now that the presents have been opened,
is looking a bit forlorn....
I suspect grandma and helper are planning
a bit of post Christmas fabric shopping
whilst the sales are in full swing.
Grandpa is quite frankly wondering where
his next meal is coming from....
And the boys have their own plans for the garden,
branches that need to be pruned and mowing to be
done.
All in all, I think they are hoping for a bit
All in all, I think they are hoping for a bit
of peace and tranquility to settle into
the new year and enjoy the beauty of their
new abode.
With two busy little boys at the helm,
I don't fancy their chances,
but we can but hope.......
