I'm over from Toddler World. Man, what great photography! I want to be able to take pics like that when I grow up! I also really like your thankful tree! We just have tree pasted on construction paper, but I like this idea way better!!!

Stacey said...

This is just a fantastic idea - I may copy it - trying to get my kids to think about all the reasons they are so blessed - this might be the ticket - something to see everyday - in writing - so they don't take it for granted!!! Thanks for sharing!

Brittany said...

what a great idea! I might have to steal that from you! It is so easy to take things for granted and this would be a lovely reminder of what we DO have!
