My daughter Shelby is a hoot. Nearly everything that comes out of her mouth is hilarious. I love chatting with her and as she gets older, it just gets better.
Now that she’s started kindergarten she really has some cute and highly memorable things to say. Last week when I was dropping her off at school, she insisted on walking in on her own. I kept trying to help her as she was carrying a large box of goldfish snacks to share with her class. After insisting I help her, she gave in, but with a frown her face said, “Okay Mom, you can come in with me, but you have to walk that way,” pointing to a path far away from the one she was on. She’s five and already doesn’t want to be seen with me!
I was thinking yesterday it would be tough to scrapbook all the funny things she says, especially since a lot of the times I have no pictures to go with her funny comments. I have decided to create an art journal of sorts. Something that is pretty to look at and can be filled with all the Shelbyisms. I don’t want to forget all the cute things she shares with me and think it will be great to look back over her words and ideas as the years pass. I want to make one for each school year and can add her school photo to the book as well. I can’t wait to see how it comes out.
What sort of crafty thing are you doing today?
I agree, kids say the cutest things sometimes! That’s a great idea to keep a journal of all the funny comments and stories, it will be fun to look back on!
