Treasure Jar

One of the latest finds at the favorite toy store: Tomica Nissan GT-R.

The children know what car models to buy and they don’t settle for those outrageous designs that are not “real cars”. Most often, we give in to them and get these toys for them, not because these are not expensive, but because they know cars well.

Even if I’d rather they hurry up so the husband can look over wholesale shoes at a newly opened store that sell these things, I know it is a lost cause when we are in the section of toy stores with these little treasures.

This is my children’s guitar. It is a mini guitar for children.

It is smaller than the usual guitar, like a taylor gs mini, because it was made especially for children. They don’t have time to really play with this especially now that they get swamped with homework, projects and other school concerns.

I miss hearing them strumming, though they still have to really learn how to play since they didn’t have time to have guitar lessons last summer.
