My sweet boy!

I was just visiting the blog of a friend of mine... TraceyT and she had posted a converstation with her 2 yr old. It reminded me of this chat with my 2 1/2 hr old son...
My DD and I had been watching Anne Of Green Gables... she is now a HUGE fan!!

DD says: Mommy, Gilbert Blyth is so beautiful!
Momy: boys aren't beautiful, they are called handsome!
DS: Like me Mommy? I'm handsome?
Mommy: Yes Sammy, like you, you are handsome!!
DS: Thank you Mommy!

I just wanna squeeze him!! LOL!
Thanks Tracey for inspiring me to write this! :)

Hope these sites can bring you some awesome inspiration as they do me!

Technique Tip

Have you ever used corrogated cardboard on a LO? This is my new addiction! It looks so cool! If you like dimention and texture, then you have to try this!
Take a piece of cardboard from a box or whatever... tear off the top layer. Using a tool of your choice,(scissors, tweezers etc) tear the layers between the bumps. Then clean it off and add some paint for texture! Layer under a photo and bang, you have a photo mat that is full of dimention!
Have fun!
