~SENTIMENTAL ME...~

I save everything.... even their tiny teeth they lost are in a little chest.



Cindy @ MY ROMANTIC HOME is the host of this sweet activity. I love it..

These little battered Beatrix Potter books are always displayed in my home. Childish things such as toy dishes, dolls, cradles, etc.. are beloved in my home reminding me of days that used to be.

Our little Dawn gave these books a work out, they were always in her little hands as she followed us around asking to be read to. It never occurred to me to take them from her and put them up if she had them on the floor and was pretending in her baby talk to read them.

When crayons were available..she did her practice writing as she grew older. She would say the letters in her little baby voice and too late, I found the scribbles. It didn't really matter but the lessons on book care began to kick in..gently. Take the little book, hand baby a piece of paper..

Eventually she learned..and she left behind her these memories that are so dear to me today.

Now her little ones are grown..and she is where I am...looking back with sweet memories.

It is a sentimental day for me to day.

Love and hugs,

Mona
