All little girls are princesses....

crown of daisies

"Mama, I think all little girls are princesses" she said.
"I think you're right sweetheart", I responded.
As we walked along, I showed her how God had carefully painted all the colours around us.  One by one so delicately, the flowers stood out amongst the green grass and shone like precious gems as the sun caressed them. 
"If all little girls are princesses" I said, "we need to make you a crown" and we did.....

Giving little pebbles life....

paisley stone

we glued and painted lil' pebbles together

'See that little turtle?' she asked.
'I don't' I replied.
'Over there mama...look!'
'That's just a little pebble'
'Mama, look harder' she said.


And then I saw it...the little pebbles on the stream suddenly came
together and I saw it.....life through a child's eyes.  Gently we took
them in our hands and gave little pebbles life.........

We found an old stick and turned it into family treasures...

Walking hand in hand with her mami, she walked along a

path...there she spotted a lonely stick...it served as the perfect

cane to stir little pebbles in the water and to write the words

"I love you mom" in the sand....with the stick she conducted

a symphony for the butterflies and the butterflies danced upon

their heads making crowns with their wings....once she was

done with the stick, they made beautiful family treasures.....
