She's Still My Little Girl


This week we bought a big appliance so we kept the box for the little ones to play in. It's been moved all over the house and has created lots of hours of enjoyment. Today it was being colored to look like a house. This picture warms my heart because Kayla, grown up as she is, is still my little girl. Last night she announced that she was sleeping in the box. The big kids used to do that when they were little. They also would make cocoons on the bottom bunk by stuffing the blankets into the boards that held up the top bunk. (I have pictures of those cocoons around here somewhere...in the "to be scrapped some year pile").

Kayla reports that is was pretty warm in the box. It did make us think about those whose lives are lived in actual boxes. In April the CCO youth group is going to be helping the homeless shelter in town by serving food. At night they will be going back up to the church parking lot and sleeping in boxes. We'll have the kids report on how that goes afterwards.
Until the next Grand Adventure,
Yvonne and crew
