a creation



every christmas/birthday,
myron *trys* to talk me into just giving the girls
cardboard boxes {instead of toys}.

he claims that they'd find more
imagination and fun within a cardboard box,
than any commercial
my little pony, little people, or barbie latest&greatest could offer them.

well, after a stock-up trip to costco this weekend...
cardboard boxes a-plenty,
and 5+ hours constructing & creating/playing in this mini chloe-house...

i think i might believe him.

My first clubhouse was a refrigerator box. I thought I had died and gone to heaven. I loved my box and when my children were little I made sure to go down to Sears and I requested a refrigerator box for them. Their boxes were cabins, mansions and large ships. Much more fun than anything you could buy premade at the store. I love Chloe's.

You are one good momma! I don't have nearly enough patience for that...and neither do my kids! Maybe there's hope for Lexi?
