I’m so pleased you like it! And that it made it! This is kind of like sittng around and talking! A quiet child can sit in a corner and learn alot! I was definitely a quiet child, always had my nose in a book. most adults don’t think a child can read and listen at the same time. :)

Well that is very nice.

I still miss visiting. I was explaining to my children that in the seventies when I lived upcountry, women and children used to visit for the day. One day cleaning, cooking or canning at one house, one day at your house. The children played together, the women got work done and had a good time and supper was cooked and all the men came to the house of the hosting woman. everyone ate and then went home.

A nice way to live with many hands helping.
