Drawings, spring, music and narration

Ciara is getting good at drawing circles now, and shows a lot of interest like Eden did with drawing - always asking for pencils and paper to draw. So this week I showed her how to make faces, and she turned her circles into faces.
This is our second recipe we try for coloured popcorn, and it worked out a lot better than the first, we got the recipe here: Coloured popcorn
Niamh mixing the popcorn into the pink mixture - this would be great for parties.
But we used it on our spring trees for blossoms.
Niamh's tree with blossoms falling down.
Ciara's tree, she wouldn't let me help her at all - such and independant little girl.
The girls music certificates came through a few weeks ago, and Eden heard the good news that she will be doing grade 4 in two months, she is flying through the grades and a lot of work needs to be done in these two months.

This weeks narration was from the miracle of Jesus feeding the 5000. Eden and Niamh did the story from the perspective of the boy whose fish and bread Jesus used for the miracle, it has been fun for them to write these stories from different perspectives.

Hello Ciara,

You look so proud holding your picture.

This is an amazing achievement for a 2 year old.

Her faces too, she has the eyes, nose and mouth all in the right places. Well done Ciara.

Lots of love from Nana.

Eden and Niamh,

How wonderful to see you both progressing so well with your music, and now you have a certificate each to put on the wall. Lots more to come.

Keep up the practicing. Remember Beethoven ha.
Lots of love from Nana.
