thanks a bunch

2011.01.04 (NiMu:4Y2M)
NiMu is a lucky girl, and has good ability at drafting. Mom is so proud of this little girl.
The cute duckling is NiMu's prize which got few days ago. It's from Fairy Dust Crafts.
NiMu used some different colours to draw those pretty flowers, she said,"Here is light, and there is dark. I use different red to color it."
Wow! She has learned to use color spectrum and shadow. Terrific!
NiMu loves make the background paper by herself.
She also pasted the corner stickers by herself. This is one of her favorite.

Here are so many teachers and classmates at school, who take care NiMu very much.
NiMu wants to say "Thank You" with these people.:)

Cute Snowman

2011.01.03 (NiMu:4Y2M)
Happy New Year!
NiMu draw this cute snowman recently. It's from "Robyn's Fetish". NiMu likes it very much.
This time, she wants to make a hanger, like mommy's.
NiMu used some pretty colors, and made the background by herself. Mommy helped her to cut the frame and put the eyelet in.
NiMu also decorated some pearls, that's very pretty! Then she pasted 2 heart stickers on it.
NiMu said, "These two hearts, one is daddy, the other is mommy. I love you all."
Oh~~ What a sweet girl!
Then mommy helped her put in the twine and tie the ribbon.
Pretty Smile!!
NiMu said, she wants to bring it to school, share with her classmates and teachers.:)

I LOVE YOU ~For Dad & Mom's Wedding Anniversary~

2010.12.24 (NiMu:4Y2M)
December 31st is Dad & Mom's wedding anniversary.
When NiMu got the news, she decided to make a card for us.
She choose "Miki LOVE Blocks" from SMC shop.
NiMu loves the rainbow colors, so she made the blocks like the pretty rainbow.
Then she put the stickers by herself. Wow! She can past it so straight!
At the left side, here are 3 pretty pearl flowers which mom taught her before. NiMu did it by herself, and she really did a great job!
How a sweet girl NiMu is.
We do love the sweet card! Thank You, sweetheart! :)

To: Santa

2010.11.24 (NiMu:4Y1M)
NiMu likes to do same thing with mommy.
When she looked the pretty candles from Daisys Digi Doodles, she wanted to draw the same image with mommy.
NiMu made the background paper by herself, she was very serious!
This card is to Santa Claus.
Mommy bumped into NiMu's English teacher-Helen last Thursday.
Teacher Helen said that NiMu has good at English, she wanted to invite NiMu join a funny activity.
Near Christmas, here is an activity in Canada-send a letter to Santa Claus. It encourages all the kids around the world to join.
Most kids in kindergarten aren't write very well, so Teacher Helen only tell the kids in primary school.
Because of NiMu is special, so Helen invited NiMu to join it.
Mommy helped NiMu to write the card. It really a special experience to her. NiMu is also very excited that she can receive the letter from Santa on Christmas.

This is also NiMu's first time to mail one person.
When she knew she can use an "envelope", she was very happy and jumped everywhere in the room.
If you have a kid, you can join this funny activity.
1.Write your letter
2.Put your letter in an envelope and mail it to:
SANTA CLAUS
NORTH POLE HOHOHO
CANADA
3.Don't forget your return address!

Happy Birthday to Dad & Mom

2010.11.15 (NiMu:4Y1M)
These two images are digi images from SliekjeStamps.
It's also NiMu's first time to use digi images. She is so excited about that.
NiMu likes the "Hamburger Boy", she said, "That's my daddy!". Then she chose a little girl who can match the boy, "She is my mommy".
Both dad and mom's birthday are on December, this card was made to we two. "Not only for dad, and not only for mom."NiMu emphasized.
Dad likes pink, mom likes yellow. NiMu chose those colors which we like best.
What a sweet girl!

Mom just helped NiMu pasted the gummed tape as background, and cut the edge of images.
Did you see the big heart-gems? That's NiMu's favorite!

At last, NiMu wish we will happy everyday.
Thank You very much, my sweetie. :)

Apple & Woody

2010.11.12 (NiMu:4Y1M)
Here is a funny TV advertisement of furniture recently in Taiwan.
A little boy asked her mother, "When can I marry May?"
Mother answered, "When this cupboard break."
Of course, the cupboard is still well, even the boy open and close it back and forth

NiMu said, "Mom, when I grow up, I want to marry LerLer."
Mom said, "No,No. LerLer is your family, you can't marry."
NiMu seems a little disappointed, "Who will marry me when I 18 years old?"
Mom said, "I don't know. Who is the guy that you want to marry? Is there any boy you like in your classroom?"
NiMu said, "Yes! Woody! I like him, because he always takes care the little one in school. He is so sweet!"

So NiMu decided to make a card about "Apple & Woody". ("Appe" is NiMu's English name.)
She chose 2 little bear, one is a cute girl who is dancing happily, the other is a cute boy has flowers.
It means, Woody gave Apple a bunch of flowers.
Ha! So cute!

NiMu stamped background paper by herself. She has a good skill to do that.
Then, Mom helped her to cut the edge.
We tried another bling flower this time. NiMu chose all the color by herself, and pasted very well.
It's a lovely card. :)

We are playing candy box

2010.11.10 (NiMu:4Y1M)
NiMu took a cute image, and said,"This is mom and LerLer, I want to make a card for you."
When she finished drawing, she said,"Ohoh! Mom is so little! I think she must be me! Ok! I make a card for LerLer and myself."
Haha~~NiMu is really a cute girl!
This is NiMu made her own background, she looks so seriously!
And she really did a good job!
After stamping the background, mom helped NiMu to cute the image's frame. Then she pasted it by herself.
The sentiment: "The laughter of a child is the light of a house." What a wonderful sentiment!!
Mom explained the meaning to NiMu, after listening, she had a big smile right away.
Ha! What a funny girl she is!

Gems are NiMu's favorite! So mom taught her to make a bling flower.
Is it pretty? We love the flowers very much! :)

The card is named "NiMu and LerLer are playing candy box.".
NiMu draw some colorful candies, they are nice to eat.

Love~For Dad's Birthday

2010.11.05 (NiMu:4Y0M)
The cute bear image is from my friend, which is NiMu's birthday present.
Last two weeks, NiMu made a card for mom, today, she made another one to dad.
Dad's birthday only 2 days before mom's.
Dad loves "pink", so sweet NiMu chose a pink gummed tape. Mommy helped her to paste it to be a pretty background.
Then NiMu color the bear as rainbow colors, which is the most beautiful color-combo and NiMu loves it so much!
NiMu also pasted the gems by herself, she was concentrated to her work.
Dad got the birthday card when he came home.
He was very happy!!
Thre are one month to Dad's birthday, but it's so happy to get the card from little Nimu.
Happy Birthday! Honey.
