This conversation took place before bed Saturday evening.
Josie: "Mom, do you like shadows?" Kim: "Yes. I like shadows." Josie: "I think shadows are Aunt Jean and Nana following us around." I definitely like shadows."
I see someone else took my comment right out of my mouth... "From the mouths of babes". I don't know what you beleive but they always say that children are more susceptible to seeing "things" and then when we get older, we lose that ability. Maybe Josie knows more than she is letting on..... Ooooh... to be a child and have that wonderful innocence again...
Hi Kim, I thought of you this weekend as I picked up my copy of Martha's Halloween magazine.
I will hear the word or see a shadow in the same way. Isn't it sad that we loose these kind of insights when we age?!? Sweet, very sweet!
I love estate sales, and have been to two since school started again. I like to hit the 50% off day. At one, I found a basket full of vintage doll clothes, and some Holly Hobby plates. Between you and K.J., both of you have me reliving my childhood with H.H., The Wizard of Oz, and Little House.
I hope to get some posts up soon, and we should find out about Chris's job this week. Please keep praying!
They are both just so beautiful! Sweet conversation with Josie. My grandfather (the kids' great-grandfather) died last week- I should suggest that comforting thought to the kids!
Don't you just love a child's perspective? When my MIL passed away our oldest was 5 years old...she said she was sure heaven was the best place for grandmother, she didn't even need to take her eye glasses! Your girls are just lovely, thank you for sharing!!
Thank you for following our adventures. I always enjoy reading your comments. Happy crafting! Happy thrifting! PS. Ignore that "robot" verification. You can ignore/skip that step since I can't seem to remove it from blogger.
I love Josie's shadows. I have told that to several people already. Love Aunt Marian
