A wife of noble character who can find? She is worth far more than rubies. Her husband has full confidence in her and lacks nothing of value. Charm is deceptive, and beauty is fleeting; but a woman who fears the LORD is to be praised.

-Proverbs 31:10-11,30

Meet Thelma



The week before Kiddo was born was one of the most boring weeks of my life. Too tired to walk. Too uncomfortable to sit/lay down. My feet would swell if I stood for too long (you know, all the normal pregnancy stuff). To distract myself I made this adorable hippo. My mom, was visiting from the U.S. in anticipation for the baby, brought the pattern. It was the strangest pattern I have ever seen but really easy to sew. 

Yesterday Kiddo and I sang a song about Thelma (sing to the tune of "Sally the Camel")

"Thelma the Hippo has 2 eyes.
Thelma the hippo has 2 eyes.
Thelma the hippo has 2 eyes,
because Thelma is a hippo" 


"Thelma the hippo has a soft belly. 
Thelma the hippo has a soft belly.
Thelma the hippo has a soft belly,
because Thelma is a hippo."


"Thelma the hippo has cute yarn tail.
Thelma the hippo has a cute yarn tail.
Thelma the hippo has a cute yarn tail, 
because Thelma is a hippo."


Thanks for singing about Thelma with us!
