Last night the Brownies dreamed up mythical creatures that shared their own individual characteristics.
I loved their pictures, but I loved even more the awesome things they recognised in themselves.

16yo was just trying to say something in a Yorkshire way, so I told her how to do it properly and she said, “oh I forgot you all talk medieval”.

I’ve needle felted a bee. She’s a bit wonky, I’m not a crafty person, but there’s something therapeutic about repeatedly poking at the wool with a sharp needle.
