These pictures remind me VERY much of the knitting I used to do for my children when they were young. It also, along with some of your previous posts, reminds me of how I NEEDED to make things like this for my children. It helped me to feel that I was contributing something that had value and permanence to my family. Things that were beautiful and practical! Definitely helps to keep one happy!
You will survive, just keep knitting! ;)

The pilcher is cute, though I shudder to think of trying to wash out the kinds of mess my son used to make!!!
The Tomten is looking fabulous,
I love the colours and the little stripes you are putting in - it will look very cool
