Welcome Back

An over 80-year-old lady is coming back to swimming class for adults today!    The fish with red cap is our instructor.  We are all balloon fish that enjoy floating than swimming fast😅😄 

Bubbles are made with wet-on-wet technique.  All fins are with brush embroidery. 

I love it Ryoko!!! What a lovely and original cookie. Congratulations to your swimming friend! I knew a lady that lived to be 103 and swam like a fish until she was over 100❤️

What a sweet testimonial!  I love the the puffer fish, wonderful facial expressions.

What a fantastic cookie! I love your puffer fish!

Super duper cute fish.❤ They are perfect puffer fish. 🐡🐡🐡💗 @Ryoko ~Cookie Ave. 

I love the cookie. And the background story makes it even better!

Hi @Kanch J   I wanted to be nice to other classmates, too,  if I were Nemo and others were octopus and squid or they were Nemo and I were shark, they won't like me 🤣   I chose puffer fish just because next city from ours is famous for puffer fish and they look cute.

Hi Gabi, @Icingsugarkeks  thank you so much💕💕  Including our swimming instructor we are very happy for her to be back but she worries a bit and she wasn't sure she should be back to class.   I wanted to tell her we were all waiting for her💙 like floating puffer fish.    We also need cookie gift from our friends sometimes, don't we?  

OMG! Super cute 🐡❤️🐡

Thank you, Carol @Cookies Fantastique   Isn't she super wonderful?  She swims as her own speed but she does individual medley 😮(butterfly, backstroke, breaststroke and freestyle)   We are all younger than her and we cannot complain such as "we are tired and cannot swim...."  😅🤣

so cute
