I’m not sure I know of anyone who loves birthdays more than James and Colin. Their own, grandma’s, a friend from school–doesn’t matter. If it’s a birthday, they’re super excited and up in their room crafting up a birthday present. For the past couple of weeks they’ve been talking about the upcoming one in our family–MINE (!!!). Yesterday afternoon they surprised me with a few early birthday presents.
Lovely wrapping job by both. James gets extra points for using paper, tape, stickers AND a sandwich bag. :)
From James–one of his colored pencils (red, of course, because it’s my favorite color), with a nicely designed Happy Berth Day tag scotch-taped into place.
From Colin–an index card, “folded” into a “tube” and taped. After he opened it for me he demonstrated exactly what it was by putting it up to his mouth and talking into it. “See Mommy?!? It makes you talk loud!!”
Aaah. Beautiful. A pencil and an index-card megaphone. I love my sweet boys.

Ah! I love it! Kids are so original! Happy Birthday Ange!
Thanks Melinda! :)
That is too cute! True expressions of love for their mom! Happy early birthday…I guess this year it will fall on Easter-eve, a perfect time to eat lots of peeps!
Mmmm. Peeps. This will be the perfect birthday. :)
