Keira turns six today- i can hardly believe it. Yet, at the same time, it feels like she's always been here. She's more grown up these days- not looking back when I drop her at school, getting wobbly teeth, reading novels and not looking up until the last page. But she does still likes dressing up in dramatic outfits.
I finished the hat I started last week, in time for the birthday. One of K's long-term desires was to possess a hat with a pom-pom on the top. So that's what I had to make, of course. I used angora yarn, and sort of made up the pattern as I went along- I was aiming for a kind of beret/tam shape.

I'm devastated to hear about the terrible earthquake affecting Japan in so many frightening ways. My heart goes out to all of you. The Red Cross looks like the best place right now to make donations.
