It’s difficult to find or think of something interesting to write about when my mind is on other things. For example knitting and wondering what to buy our little one for his 4th birthday. Being 4 now is so totally different to 18 yrs ago when my eldest turned 4. Being 4 now is “big’ and it means “big” presents. The 4 yr old’s today play PC games, watch movies and drive battery operated vehicles and “know everything”.
Still turning 4 is a big, important event and it will be enjoyed and celebrated. The cake, sweets, balloons and hats are just a small part of it. Presents a large part of it. Our little one thinks “Father Christmas” brings him his birthday presents too. I haven’t the heart to tell him otherwise. Let him have his belief , before we blink he will be all grown up and mature and fairy tales will become a thing of the past.
I’m going to bake him a dinosaur cake and its a surprise. I haven’t baked for many years, but baking is similar to riding a bicycle; you don’t forget.
Well as to my knitting; its coming along nicely and I’m learning something new daily. I must admit I’m somewhat addicted to knitting. I’m learning to read and knit at the same time. I’m feeling extremely clever at the moment.
Must go. My needles are calling me…:-)
