What treasure we're fighting over today...









... and these fairy wings aren't even ours. Kate went with her friend Lilly to see Disney Princesses (and Fairies) on Ice and her friend Lilly left these behind in our car.

Hopefully she won't mind us all trying them out.



Later in the day - desperate to find something 4 little hands could do that did not involve beating each other over a coveted pair of wings,

I had them make necklaces.


Jack and Kate have completely different personalities, as evidenced by the finished products...






Jack's necklace was completely intact. Every cheerio that I placed in his bowl was carefully strung on his ribbon. If he uncovered a broken cheerio while working, it needed an immediate replacement. If Kate snagged one of his for her own, there was an outcry.

You can't tell from the picture, but Kate has 3 or 4 cheerios on her ribbon. She ate about 40, and crushed another 10 or 20 into her clothes and/or chair. She was thrilled with the outcome.

Jack tried and tried, and tried to point out to her the error of her ways, but she was could not be deterred.

Maybe she's laying on the floor because her belly hurts...
