Bestillingsarbejde

English version below
Som jeg fortalte i dette indlæg, bestilte mine børn hver et dyr fra bogen Super-Cute Crochet. Og i modsætning til det bestillingsarbejde, som min “blog-nabo” LisBethLys fortæller om her (jeg fik også tilbudt dette bestillingsjob), takkede jeg “ja” til opgaven og har nu eksekveret opgaven.

Børnene er godt tilfredse og ligefrem taknemlige. Så det er nok ikke sidste gang, mor her går igang med den slags bestillingsarbejde. Faktisk tror jeg nok, at Annabella (3 år) har bedt mig om at hækle nogle kjoler til sine dukker. Men for det første tror jeg nok, at hun glemte at “spørge pænt”, og for det andet, piller hun altid tøjet af sine dukker i samme øjeblik, jeg har klædt dem på, så den er parkeret på en meget lang venteliste *blinkende smily*.

My kids ordered two amigurumi creatures from the book Super-Cute Crochet. Now I have executed the task and delivered. The kids are satisfied and even thankful for my work, which they have been following and encouraged me to finish in a hurry. I think that this will not be the last time, that I accept crochet orders from them. Actually I remember that Annabella (3 years) has mentioned that she wanted me to crochet dresses for her dolls, but first of all I think, that she forgot to ask “nicely” and secondly she always undresses her dolls immediately after I have dressed them. So that order will be parked on a very long waiting list.

Farligt børnearbejde?

I går fik vores datter Annabella lov at pille alle disse nåle af.

I dag ville hun gerne lege med nåle igen, så hun fik lov til at sætte nye nåle i mit “blocking board”. Elias syntes også, det var spændende, så pludselig sad begge vores børn og legede med nåle. Det var en øvelse for mig i at slippe kontrollen. Jeg klarede det nogenlunde - selv da jeg opdagede, at de var begyndt at bøje nogle af de billige nåle. Ingen kom til skade.

Yesterday our daughter Annabella was pulling out all these needles out of the blocking board. She wanted to do the same today, so I let her put new needles in. Elias joined her and suddenly both our children were playing with needles!! It was an exercise for me in to lose the control. I did OK, even when I discovered that they had bent some of the cheap needles. No one was injured.
