Well, "Kindergarten" was supposed to start for us last Tuesday, September 8th, right after Labor Day. I have been planning, preparing, memorizing songs, verses, stories, making puppets, practicing my beeswax coloring, wet on wet watercoloring painting, learning the penny whistle ... I was ready :-) Hmmmm ... but the house WAS NOT! As things go in south Florida, work on houses does not usually start when planned, go as planned, and certainly not finished when planned ;-) So, my house was in the midst of having all the doors and baseboards painted and our glass tile added to the kitchen walls. Not the greatest time to begin. Instead, we decided to postpone our grand start to kindergarten until the 15th. However, we have still been quite busy crafting and getting the house ready for (drum roll please) ... AUTUMN!!!! Yeah!!!! I can feel the cool, crisp breeze in the air already and I can see leaves turning and just smell the apples ready to be picked and the pumpkins ... oh, yes, I guess I was dreaming. Not here in south Florida. It is still hot, steamy, stormy and very much like the tropics. But, a girl can dream. To get into the spirit, Boo Boo and I made Autumn leaves from wool roving, using cookies cutters, some soap and water. What fun!! Also, if you take a close look, you can see my little 1 X 1 glass tiles in the background ... the house is finally starting to look like a home.
