This morning I was laying in bed while the kids ran around the lounge room, trying to soak up as much lazy time as possible before being hounded by breakfast requests. Oscar came running in saying, "Mum, you should come and see what Lilsy is doing..."
Oh the cheekiness...she cries to play with my pincushion every time she sees it. I haven't given in yet, and this morning she managed to climb up on a chair, plonk herself down in front of the sewing machine and go to town with the pins! There were no tears - until I took them off her!!
Then, later on I had a shower and this is what I came out to...
Is that not the face of a guilty little "betcha didn't know I could do this, did ya Mum?!" She had dragged the chair over to the kitchen bench and was getting into all sorts of treasures! There is no stopping her now...nothing is safe. All day long she has been pushing the chairs around so that she can climb up and help herself to anything she pleases on the table and benches. I think the chairs might have to live on top of the table or in another room for awhile. Cute little drawings going on though....

She wants to sew and draw... you should be proud :-)
I miss that "conquering" stage. They go at everything with as much gusto as a climber on Everest... and are just as pleased when they reach the top!
LOL - that is so funny!!! Maybe she is writing out some tips from the 'your mortgage' mag!?
I am having similiar little events with Ruby at the moment, can't really leave her for to long.They are funny little things.
Oh the pin cushion is so pretty. Maybe you could make Lil a quick little cushion of her own with pearls and beads sewn on top that she could have? Will probably still want yours but worth a shot?
He he. I reckon Lil looks a lot like you when you were little (it must be her hair style) :-)
