Back Again





I do apologize for our absence. I don't really have any recent photos of Eden, and that always delays me. The above photos are his recent masterpieces.

The introduction of the following have captured his attention: a 'stool' to sit at the coffee table, paper covering the coffee table all the time, a paintbrush...

He loved painting the mug & bowl for phil and I'm not sure i've ever seen him sit so still as he did whilst decorating the moon and star. I plan on displaying them somewhere - we did them because he's always pointing out moons, stars and suns in books.

It has highlighted that we really need some more supplies. The crayons we have don't mark very easily on paper, but he loves pencils... so I'm leaning towards getting some pencil crayons/coloured pencils (depending on your nationality, you'll know what I'm on about).. also we need a child friendly paintbrush, and a glue spreader... among other things that are always on my wishlist for eden.

He is speaking more every day. In fact there's generally a new word every day. The latest are: yellow (!), grass, door, bowl, van, man (although van & man sound the same). And pretty much everything is about daddy these days. I'm no longer called anything - just a piece of furniture!!!
