Worms!

Spring has finally arrived, I'm happy to say. April showers drench the grooves and nooks in my garden as I sit here in the musty, moody, and moldy library along with so many others in our tunnels, little scholarly moles that we are. Still, outside the apple tree's showing white buds wrestling their way out, and the blueberry bushes with a hint of green blush on their branches no longer look so lifeless.

And the worms have come out to play.



N. made this herself (with a tiny bit of help from me). She chose the pompom balls, glued them together one by one, and then the eyes and antennae (I helped with that one). She even chose the button for a mouth. This little one will rock the craft as she gets older.

What signs of Spring do you see around you?

  1. Olá querida!!!
    E como vai fazer muitas coisa essa pequena, os sinais começam na infância.
    Amada aqui é inicio de inverno, adoroooo, apesar das chuvas do frio, e do mofo, amo de paixão o frio, as pessoas ficam mais próximas, vestem se com elegância, comemos mais etc...
    Tenho pena de quem levanta cedo pra ir ao trabalho, e os pobres que são carentes de roupas, mas quando pequena passei por tudo isso e estou aqui linda maravilhosa, tem certas coisas que servem para nos ensinar a ficar fortes, e ter força para conquistar no futuro.
    Obs: meu endereço vai no teu pacotinho semana que vem vou ao correio postar mas dai te aviso o dia que vou ok.
    Bjos para essas meninas arteiras ai.

  2. little scholarly moles Such a funny and cute picture that makes!

    N. did a great job with her worm. I'm going to have to figure out a way to share Makayla's attempts with you without creating another blog!
