[NFB-Krafters-Korner] Want to know Wednesday

I also loved to build model cars, trucks, motorcycles, ships and planes. I
created quite a few unique and one of a kind  creations that my Parents and
Friends called Whatcha ma call thems.
I still get the urge to go on line to find plastic models of the above
items.

I was given the options to move on to the first grade or stay another year
in kendagarden something about me being smart enough but a bit younger than
the rest of the class.

I begged to stay because I loved painting and all the fun stuff we did.

I was sighted then.

We had also sprayed shaving cream on the desks covering it and drew pictures
in it. It was to help us learn to wright and to learn our shapes.

When i was about 7 I was taught by my great grandmother and aunt how to
crochet. I learned how to make a dolly or one of those round table top
things that looks lacey. My aunt had one. I asked how to make it so she
taught me.
