Wouldn't it be dandy
to live in a world made of candy?
My gingerbread house
will smell ever so sweet,
and bright jelly beans
will pave out the street.
Giant lollipop trees
will reach to the clouds,
and I'll eat tons of toffee -
no grown-ups allowed.
I'll live in this world
with my bear and my doll,
and my good friend the dentist
will take care of us all.

How fascinated he looks by them both, these photographs of yours are truly stunning and your little nephew is so tender and sweet !
You had a gorgeous idea to make not only the blanket but also the ball with the same yarns and the same colours, I'm sure that he's caught by this, first of all ... he's so tender !
Thank you for this so beautiful post, my dearest Amalia,
may your Sunday be blessed with love

He is so cute, love that expression on his face in the first picture! He can easily grab hold of the big ball you made him, can't he? The colors in the blanket and ball are very cool. And to live in a gingerbread house would be also!
Ohhhh precious.... And blowing that bubble in the second photo! :-)))))))))
Super gifts and such sweet pictures. Jo x
Oooh....I love the idea of your candy world. Could we cover some parts with chocolate, too?? I suspect the dentists would have very, very fat purses in this little world. Your crochet is beautiful, as is your nephew Ariel; he is so very sweet. The crochet ball is very cool...love, love the colours. I never leave your lovely place, Amalia, without a smile on my face. Your blog is the most delightful of places to visit!
Precious boy, crocheted gifts and story, Amalia. Thanks for posting :) xx

A very 'sweet' poem, Amalia, I loved it! The baby boy is beautiful and I believe he's kept his eye on that cuddly ball the whole time he's been resting on that lovely blanket!

Amalia, these pictures are so cute of your nephew, and the blanket and soft ball you made for him are wonderful. You know, you should put a collection of your poems together and make them into a book, just a thought. They are delightful.
Have a happy weekend.

What a cutie patootie your little nephew is. It looks like he's loving the blanket and the soft ball. What sweet gifts that you made for him!
Oh goodness, he's too cute! And looks extra comfy with that blanket!
Too cute! Love the bright colours of the crochet blanket and ball.
I didn't think of that but you are right, there is that look about him.
That is exactly what I said, Maya! I do hope I passed the inspection :-)
Except in the summer! What happens in the summer?
Chocolate is a must!
How wonderful, Vickie! Crochet is the very best of crafts and don't let anyone tell you differently :-)
Yes, I write all the poetry on my blog. Thanks for visiting!
So that's what that look meant!
And he would go to you, Shane. A friendly sort of baby (unless he wants to eat or sleep, of course :-)
Yes, indeed I did :-)
Thank you, Bonnie, how kind! And I filled the ball with fiberfill.
Ariel is adorable and he sure seems to like the blanket and ball.
Thanks for sharing at SYC.
