One more early morning... I
have my three girls here at home, all still tucked into their beds sleeping. Picture
one very happy mama! They
played with the doll house a bit and when I went to take pictures of it for
today, it did look a little different.
There
seems to be a Christmas party:
The upstairs
gang is a loud crowd
She
has been partying since Halloween…
Aunt
Lydia has gotten tired and has gone to bed already.
The
party downstairs is a lot quieter
(She
was going to call the police but was told to hold it together, instead she is turning Nessum Dorma louder and louder not to hear the music from
upstairs…)
There
is the gossip crowd in the kitchen…
This
scene really made my day… if I had arranged everything, it would have looked
so dull different, but now that the girls (all getting closer to 30 than 20) had done
it, it seems like the house is living its own life; there is a breath of fresh
air, a new dimension, more depth and layers, almost as if it is more real.
There was laughter… and giggles and merrymaking. The best sounds of my Christmas.
I wish you all the very best of the
season!
Thank you for reading and thank you for your
comments!
Wool,
as always, with you,

ReplyDeleteGreetings from Canada! Dear Lene, I have so enjoyed these December posts. I wish I could get out my own doll house and play but I have 2 large kittens that would try to squeeze into the rooms and make off with the bits and bobs! I loved watching the fun with yours and your woolen cats! Merry Christmas to you and best wishes for the New Year.
ReplyDeleteLene, I love to go through the looking glass with you. Every creature in this world of yours is so colorful and happy!! Thank you from the bottom of my heart for continuing to share it with us. May you and your family have the very best life can offer in 2018!
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas. How fun to have your girls home. Enjoy every minute.
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year! Your dolls are amazing!
ReplyDeleteDear Lena, Happy New Year. Some how I lost my 'favorites' this summer and try as I might I could not remember what words to use to locate you. Then someone on another blog posted a connection and now I've spent my morning catching up with your fall and Christmas. I've enjoyed your posts so much. Wool with you.
