Knit one...

I didn't have a great day today.  I have had a bad toothache for a few days and managed to get into the dentist today.  Only to be told that I have to have Root Canal Treatment on one of my teeth.  This is quite costly and quite painful.  I'm quite sad about it...  I guess I am grateful that I can afford to fix it up properly. (That's lame!)  As I said to the girls, just keep brushing your teeth!!!

I went back to work after this revelation, but my mouth was feeling terrible and then my computer stuffed up, so I left early.  Arriving home, Rachel showed me a scarf she had knitted for her doll.  There is something beautiful about your 12 year old daughter showing you something she's knitted!  I haven't knitted for a long time and never actually learnt how to start knitting (as in casting on) - she did the whole thing herself.  Even learning how to cast off by watching a You Tube video.  My mother has been showing her how to knit.  I was so excited about her achievement that I called my mother to tell her.  And, quite frankly, I think it made her day (or her hour!).  It's amazing the little things that can make you happy.   And it was lovely!!
