Leena,

Congratulations on your achievement! Pretty soon your taste will improve and everything will go from nothing to cardboard.

I learned to make cranes at 4 years old and all through school I made little blow up balls to play with in all sizes. Halloween 2000 my mother made piles of all kinds of things to give to the children with candy. They were all ooing and ahhing all the way back to their parents.

When I was 5 I only spoke Japanese and could not go to kindergarten when we moved back to the US in 1961. My mother used to go to grade schools and teach oragami. She put a (dog) harness on me and tied me to the doorknob while she taught. I still jump up and bark for treats. laugh

You'll be eating ham way before Christmas!
