~ books,

for colouring ~

my sister read an article of a young girl in hospital drawing coloring pages & getting her parents to photocopy them for the other children to color, so we have decided that is a perfect idea & we're working on a coloring book to donate to children hospitals everywhere!

 big sisters sewing{in paintings!} little sisters crafting up ideas{in same such paintings!}, birthday flowers{& balloons} for a tiny party, & a girl on our fridge who always helps me be brave in this very serious ol' world of ours :)
