Getting ever so close now and the excitement is rocking the kitchen

Hi Funky's hows it going ? 

It is getting ever so close now to release and i'm hopeful i can give a release date in the next day or two just a couple of last things to be sure of first :)  BUT i can safely say the excitement is ROCKING THE KITCHEN . . . LITERALLY.  The Funky GeeGee's are pacing back and forth causing tracks in the kitchen lino i have threatened them if they do not stop i will have to sell their carrots to pay for new flooring. Hmmmmm that did not go down very well and within minutes they had changed route and direction to compensate for the tracks already there.

NOW MY FLOOR LOOKS LIKE AN ABSTRACT PAINTING!!

Sooooo what else has been going on in Funky studio?  WELL this week was world book day for the children at school and i was rather gutted that their was not an opportunity for them to dress up. It was pj's for Baby Funky and for Mini Funky it was school uniform and a book quiz trail (Which was fun, but could of been more fun if we had lots of little characters running round school) But we had a great time answerng the quiz questions together and rattling round all the corners of school looking for the answers.  These early years are just so precious.  And Mini Funky is growing so so quickly and seems to know so many things and some of it just VRrrrrooooooms straight over my head.
Baby Funky has had a growth spurt so as well as trousers with ankle ventilation.  She also looks like a little lady,She's a proper little princess. Very girlie UNLIKE HER MUM :)

The children are doing the end papers for my book. We were walking to school one day discussing them and what they may like to create and share. We somehow went from the idea of carrots and apples, to spaceships with neon lights and princesses with magic powers . . . .Hmmmm I did try and explain to them that it is a HORSE book.  And their reply?

Well you make the Funky GeeGee's wear 

dresses and fly spaceships. 

Smurf has even been seen on a broomstick!!

OK FAIR ARGUMENT. Yes indeed the GeeGee's have been seen in space shuttles and wearing tiara's and long frocks.  So I suppose this matter has some room for compromise. And it is still a WIP.  But i promise when you read the book and you see their little end papers they have painted pictures for.  Their hearts, imaginations, and creative spirit has gone into them. And they are both proud and over the moon that they can have this opportunity to share them with you.  I love my little Artists <3

So we shall have the end papers ready by Sunday night ready to go into the manuscript too :) And I am ever hopeful that the 3rd week of the month is going to be when i can let the Funky GeeGee's Freeeeeee with their story :)

This coming week will be finalizing everything and getting the GeeGee's all spruced up ready to meet the world.  And WOW are they excited. And so am I :) :) Eeeeeek MASSIVE GOOFY SMILES :)

 Finishing off the final few Illustrations for the book last week :)

 FAR TOO MANY LATE NIGHTS!! . . .Makes Miss Funky look like THIS. YIKES.

I think i best get myself FUNKY'd up a bit for the book launch.  Can't be sprucing the GeeGee's up and then have Miss Funky stand there like a neglected shetland pony in full winter coat. lol.

SO NOT LONG NOW THEN . . . . And I shall guarantee some GIGGLES OUT LOUD:)

Catch you all soon <3 Miss Funky xxx
