Thank you ladies for featuring my puzzle today -- it's still a hit in our house 9 months later!!
ReplyDeleteGreat ideas! I really like the puzzle.
ReplyDeleteSelena has already given us the greatest gift for Grandparents Day. The other night she wanted to say grace at the dinner table, so we obliged. Her prayer was: "Dear Jesus, Bless you, And Thank you for Grandma and Grandpa. Amen" Nothing could top that especially coming from a 2.5 yr old!
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing our frames today. G&G's think it's great to have an unbreakable frame to display at their house too-since little fingers love to touch :)
