I love this kid. She can always find a way to create something out of nothing.

I Guess I’m Not Grown Up Enough Yet For Fancy Shoes
I have finicky feet. I have discovered over the years that the higher priced the shoe, the happier my feet are. Which is rather unfortunate for the budget. For years I was a Nine West girl, although lately their styles have been letting me down. Or perhaps I have been letting them down. In other...

It’s Saturday Night And I Ain’t Got Nobody…
Okay, so the only part of that title that’s true is the Saturday night part, but I couldn’t resist. I keep seeing all those tweets by the #magicalmoms and even though I’ve already been to a Disney Mom Blogger Mixer, I still get a little twinge of jealousy every time I think of how much...

Beautiful
A few weeks ago, my daughter took it upon herself to create this. In her mind’s eye it was a labor of love, a work of art, a masterpiece. She worked tirelessly on it for hours and then proudly showed it to me when she was done. Of course I ooohed and ahhhed appropriately and...

Boxes are fun and cheap entertainment.You are a brave mother for letting her do it in the kitchen. I send the boys to the garage to work on their box decorating.
I need to find a couple boxes and then invite the neighbor kids. They’d have so much fun.
I am so glad you let her do that. That is so much fun. What a boost to a kid’s imagination! (Points for frugal fun!)
Yeah, she has spent DAYS on that thing. I should take another picture. It’s quite embellished now.
Thanks so much for the shout out!
Our daughter was born and some of the simplest toys were a piece of paper or a box !! She would play in the box or admire the paper , just a small piece and observe how she could turn the piece various ways and watch the motions of her hand and the paper. She is very artistic now and loves to make cards for fathers day and mothers day !!! Those to me are some of the most cherished gifts one could receive.

Perfect! We are TOTALLY doing that the next time we get a big box!!
