Queen of the Jungle

Church isn't just for singing, praying and studying: It's also for making papier-mâché lions. Our church has a kindergarten school and some lucky child will get to smash my curly haired lion to bits. The kids will be learning about Daniel in the den of lions. Although God's angel didn't smash the lions with a bat, hopefully, the children will remember that our God is a God who rescues.

New Little Ones

Here's my latest. I love sunflowers. I asked the teacher if using fake flowers was okay. I got a polite smile and a "no."
I went to a LARGE store called Joyful Honda. They had roosters in their pet section! After some deliberation, I bought 6 guppies instead. Marie, Tokio, Erik and I each get to name one. That leaves two fish as replacements (good to be thinking ahead right?). It's been 4 days and no untimely deaths, so far so good. If you can come up with good names for the replacements let me know.

Off to ikebana class again. I wanted to return the vase and frog (sharp spiky thing that holds the flowers) to the teacher, so I took the flowers out and put them in a teacup. Hope no ikebana experts will roll over in their graves. I'll show her this photo tonight and see what she says.
