A while ago, I don’t know where, I think I wrote a little about how much we felt Amelie was outgrowing being home educated. In an ideal world, this would not be so; if she was the eldest, if her brother had not died, if I hadn’t had the business, or Bene, if she...

There are all sorts of reasons. One is I’m spending my evenings listening to the Wee Free Men books while making this. Another is I’ve been making these. Because I really want to get back to selling handmade things this year and I have masses of plans and not much time. Then there is...
