In Isolation

We're holed up here at Chez T. No outside contact. No visitors. No getting out and about. This was fun for the first 24 hours. It isn't so fun anymore. We've done all our tried and true methods of distraction and we're out of ideas. There are only so many things to do to entertain an almost 6-year old all day long without being able to go anywhere.

The Punk came up with a great idea, all on his own. Let's try knitting, he suggested.

Note the tongue. This is his concentration look.

So, even though things are a little boring, and birthday parties had to be postponed, and hockey games cancelled, this more than made up for it.

My 6 year old (well close enough). Knitting.

I've been home sick for 3 days. I'm so bored! Today was the first day I could sit up long enough to knit.

Good job on teaching the little ones!

So cool! Does he like it? And have you exhausted your wine supply yet? Cause I deliver.

He is really loving it. Everytime I go into the living room he has it pulled out of the knitting basket.
