The other day I looked over at Jairus and admired him as he intently scribbled on a scrap of paper. As every parent does from time to time, I thought to myself,"What a genius he is, he holds his pencil so well!" Then it hit me....he was using his left hand! I watched him all that day and realized he uses his left hand for everything else too. My little guy is left handed. Crazy. How do you teach a lefty to write anyway?
Thomas' thoughts of course immediately went to the wide world of sports. He thinks Jairus' calling in life is now to be a left handed pitcher. I guess they make a bit of money. Here's hoping the kid loves baseball!
We just got these super adorable wool pants into the shop today. I love that they are hand knit by sweet women in Equador who are paid a fair wage and are able to stay at home with their children.
Anyway they are so cute to me. Not quite as cute as the little guy modeling them though.
I finally finished it! It only took me two months,but I finished Aislyn's "flower pink dress." I LOVE to sew. Since opening the store and having the baby, time always seems to elude me. I guess I just need to hone my organizational skills and make time for all the things I want to do. Right now I have two other projects in the making. Marley wanted a sailor dress. And since she probably won't think sailor dresses are cool for much longer I thought I'd get right on that. I'm also making Jairus a little button-on short suit out of the same fabric as Marley's dress. I love all things old fashioned. I can't wait to see his cute little knees sticking out below those little shorts, it'll be so cute.
