Three more hearts

Here's what I've been doing over the weekend. I'm lucky to have a great guy like Rob who indulges my passions and looks after the kids, while I indulge myself!
This is my favourite one. I love the colours. It is a very serene heart.

This one I pushed the boundries and worked with 'that' colour I don't like. I guess it turned out ok, I just don't like the yellow. But, someone will love the yellow and give it a new home. What a great world we live in. Tried a new kind of ribbon flower on this one ( the blue) and They turned out really well.

This one I love the colours, but the bronze ribbon is quite wide, and I feel that the whole heart looks a bit top heavy, but if I do much more I think I will totally fec it up.


Ben has had 4 days at school, and has turned into the most revolting child. He finds it hard to make new friends and he is the only one from his class to move up this year ( just the way the work it with birthdays) so, he doesn't know anyone in his class. I know he is anxious about it. He's not sleeping well, when he finally does fall asleep, he's so tired that he's wetting the bed, and he wants me to walk him to school every day. It will take him at least this term to feel comfortable in his class, meanwhile I've got a child whose insecurities and frustration are being taken out on us at home.
Last year he was moved 2 weeks after he started school. I expressed my hesitation at this move at the time. It did have advantages, but I think now I should of insisted that he stay where he was. Most of the children from that first class moved up this year, and at least he would of had some kids he had relationships with.
Oh well, hindsight is a great thing. Good to know now, but it won't be an issue for Brooke and Jon because their Bdays are after 31 March, so they will be in the same class for 2 years. They also have completely different personalities, and I don't think anything like this will bother them.
