And we're back. Don't you hate it when you make an announcement to the world, and then you can't follow through because life gets in the way? Yup. It's been one of those weeks!

Meine große Tochter ist gerade fünf geworden und hat seit ihrem Geburtstag schlagartig große Lust, all meine Handarbeitsprojekte mitzumachen. Und ja, ich habe super viel Material, tausend Ideen aus der Schule und dem Unterricht. Vieles davon ist aber einfach nicht für die Handkoordination und Motorik einer Fünfjährigen geeignet.
