And before I'll take you to one full-filling hour in Arad on September 27,
let's remember the fun and laughter
of a sad day in Shoham, on June 6 !

Among the "things", that I keep for little guests,
is a box with tiny building-blocks,
and another one with tiny magnets,
suited only for older children.
But remembering, how fond Mika is of items,
which are not only tiny, but often almost microscopic,
I brought the boxes.

The last photo is not "good",
but so strange, that I didn't want to delete it.
Mika seems to be unnaturally tiny
compared with her father,
And both seem to look into a distance-out-of-reach...

Stepping up, stepping down,
it's not easy to stay balanced!
But that exactly is the challenge!
And there are gorgious stones to climb over,
or to rest on!

"Perakh", she says, and tries to smell it.

And then, after the steps and the stepping,
after the "pakh" and the blue flower,
Mika bends down to the earth to her favorite "objects":
stones!
I'll dedicate an special sculpture to this delight,
so here I'm inserting only a small image
that shows her total immersion.

The first stone, she had brought us to look at,
was extraordinary:

a heart-like triangle!

This is MY shape!

So when she wanted to discard it,
I held on to it
and side-tracked her to another stone.
"It's a little pentagon", Immanuel said,
when he looked at it from all sides..

But I was enticed by Mika's two triangles.

So some days later I went to take a clear photo
of the gate-triangle,
and at home on the woven strip next to my computer
I posed the heart-triangle...
