On my hobby horse. in It's a Suhaila!

So, I’ve got myself a new hobby.

Besides playing the flute, reading, snuggling Jasmine, and judo, I’ve taken up an outdoor hobby… something not often heard about, but it gives me an excuse to get out over the park nearby more often and take Jasmine.

I’m learning to fly a kite.

Jasmine, bless her, is keen to help. I let her hold the kite and then tell her which way to run, and when to let go to see how best we can get the thing to take off up in the air. It seems to be working, and she likes running with it too. However, I’m still having a few problems, mainly that of the ground getting in the way of the kite. Need to learn to fly it higher and keep it there!

Once I really get into it I will see if I can either make my own, or get a custom one made. I’d like it to be purple, and give the kite a tail, and on the tail I’d like it to say “Suhaila” and “Jasmine”.

I have encountered one problem which I really need to address though. That is having Jasmine close by me (and well within earshot!) when I crash the kite.... “Oh s@&t!” Oops… hope she doesn’t pick it up and start saying it in playgroup!!
