gift

Sunday was a day of gift. Firstly, I managed to get to church, which was an achievement after the last couple of weeks. Then in the afternoon, I had very special visitors. A friend brought her daughter, who looks a bit like a pixie, to see the Dolls' House.

Pixie and the house simply recognised each other like old friends. She hardly needed introducing to the family of dolls, and methodically sorted them all out, made up their beds, put the best china on the dresser, and set out their tea on the table. The baby is in the cot that Daughter made many years ago. A little doll who is now called Alice is looking after another baby and the cat, and Mr Christmas is having a lie down. She and the house were delighted with each other, and it was a gift to watch them.

There was another gift, too. Pixie had made me a loom band! And she's coming back before Christmas to put up their decorations. I'm looking forward to it so much.
