Now that the baba has discovered her legs my time is mainly spent on trying to control the mayhem that often ensues...
Such daily pursuits as; falling in/out of the toy box, climbing over the furniture, chasing fearful cats, pulling the books off the shelves, throwing rice cakes/blueberries/peas into random corners of the house/ironing basket/my pocket, and graffiti style crayoning.
This all requires careful monitoring ignoring and controlling tea supping....
It's futile to try and control a determined toddler who has new legs, and shoes.
Consequently my list of unfinished projects is deficient of triumphant ticks and so I have decided to focus on things I can actually achieve, which has led to picking the wildflowers in the garden.
Bluebells, forget-me-nots and ...er... crushed daisy heads...(thankyou Ella...).
Aren't they pretty though? And so delightfully fragrant. I love that there is at least one tidy, beautiful and, perhaps a little stylish space, on this unreachable mantlepiece, that helps me stay positive and focus on the creative.
My creative space at Kootoyoo.
So pretty, when my children were that small, I would buy flowers and put them up high, as you say, even just to have a little space that was sweet and creative!

They look so lovely! Oh, I have to laugh at your toddler story. Isn't it hilarious the things they can do when they find their legs! There is never a dull moment from here on in...
