THREE LITTLE BOYS


So, how are the grandchildren, I hear you ask?


Little Bebe in Canada has advanced to exploration and reconnaissance of his environment -
or as my daughter wrote "And so it begins ...."

Life will never be the same in that house - 
for a couple of years anyway ...


By the lake on Canada Day..


His Big Boy Brother plays with a chipmunk..


and swims in the lake..


Little Aussie, our Australian grandson, has advanced to superior mask-making and has become an Owl!!
He knows Grannie loves birds..


I made a leopard print Tee the other day -
fairly boring sewing, but a useful item...


This orchid has become the gift which keeps on giving..
I do nothing, just water it weekly, and it rewards with the most beautiful trails of orchids every few months...

Well, I'm off for a few days in the sun..

Au Revoir!

    1. I like that photo too, Rosemary. Quick-witted daughter thought to snap and send it! Just skyped with them, and the little one smiled for us across the world - we are happy old grandparents tonight...
      and Thank you, we enjoy a little business/pleasure combination trip.

  2. I remember the days with two little boys - you never knew what they would be up to next! That is a very pretty T-shirt you made. I'll bet it gets worn a lot. Don't they say that Leopard is the new neutral?

    1. Know what you mean Beryl - we had two boys following our daughter. Those two in Canada will be up to tricks once the little one is walking. Leopard is definitely a neutral these days.

  5. I have never seen a chipmunk ( first thought: a rat ), actually cute.
    You seem to be well- briefed on your small grandchildren.
    I have no skills with flowers; an orchid will be fine for a while and then I carry it away.
    Happy vacation& business time!
