Oh well.. you won’t be a true crafter if you weren’t bitten by a new craft bug,every now and again.. now,would you?
So,the latest bug to bite me is called jewellery making..I was lusting after some beads 2 weeks back,when I was stuck at home with sick kids..And I asked around on my local mum’s groups if anyone made jewellery,etc..and one of them,said,she was selling her jewellery making supplies..if I was interested..I looked at the pics and I salivated..I hesitated just a bit,because really I had never spent $$ on anything craft-related..I usually look in the bargain bins or the sale shelves..but I knew it I would never be able to get a collection that big..quickly..because I NEEDED it ASAP..
I got the collection,and checked out a few tutorials and then opened the treasure-chest and made these..
Sorry about the bad pic..I was so excited..:)
Well well * jumping impatiently* what do you think?what do you think??

Yes.. thats all that I can think of!!
5 more sleeps till Aadya’s school breaks for the Spring break..and 6 more sleeps till we get on the plane to go to Brisbane!SD has work there and we are all going with him.
2 whole weeks of lounging,no cooking,cleaning-no household chores..now if only the hotel room came with a Nanny..:D
LOL! I am just kidding! I would go nuts,if a nanny was watching my kids…but I could surely do with an hour or two of non-kid time for my crafty pursuits!
So,any Brisby readers here?? I hope you’ll stop by and say hello and tell me,how to keep two super-active kids,entertained for 2 weeks..
Ohh I am so excited..I am so excited…LOL!! I have been a single mom during the week for the last 2 months and can’t wait to be just one of the parents again..:)

I know Father’s Day was last weekend but I have to write this down..because I want us to remember this.
So,Aadya’s school had organised a special movie afternoon.And SD was away in Brisbane..There is no way he could have made it.When I saw the note from school..it broke my heart.I mean,literally..it hurt..:(
Aadya asked me why did I ever let Papa go to Brisbane..and I was sad..Anyway,I decided that I would pick her up early that day,take her out for a coffee afternoon and some Father’s day shopping.When I told her the plan,she very calmly told me,”No! Mum..I don’t want to miss it..besides Mrs.W is going to give special hugs to kids whose dad’s can’t make it.” Wow!She was taking it much better than me!
Then,some of the moms at school,decided that they would go in,because their partners/husbands couldn’t.I wasn’t too keen on that..but I didn’t want her to be the only one without a parent there..so,that morning,I asked her,if she would like me to come..and she was shocked! ‘Why Ma..why would you want to come? Its father’s day,not mother’s day!Didn’t I celebrate Mother’s Day with you?’ I said some of the moms were coming..so should I join them..and she told me..’well if you come,then hide from me..I don’t want to see you there..’ So much for wanting to save her from heart-break!
Anyway,I told her teacher that her dad wont be there..etc..and that I will pick her up at regular pickup time. When I went to pick her up,Mrs.W pulled me aside and told me..that Aadi was so good..she went and sat with her friend and her dad.They read to him and hugged him,said thank you.The said Father is a really nice guy.When I walked in,the first thing he told me was,that Aadya told him that her sister was this( distance between forefinger and thumb!!!) tiny..:)
She came home with lots of presents for SD- A mug that said-Australia’s best dad..some chocolates,cards, letters.And then we bought some pink roses and a T-shirt for him.
The next day,Saturday,after I came back from work,SD took her to watch Batman.She was so excited about the movie,the popcorn and the fizzy drinks in that order!! Nanhi and I took a nice long nap,when they were gone.
The next morning,Sunday,as soon as he woke up,she gave SD some water in his mug.Then we made brekky for him..actually served him cereal and tea on a tray but she helped pour the milk,make the tea..everything. Since it was a nice sunny day,we decided to go to the Weribee zoo.The zoo was quite a disappointment in terms of animals..but we had fun,hanging out as a family.
I leave you with a picture of the proud father and his two Princess’
