A while ago I ended up with some kind of kid's meal toy, which has a Belle (disney princess) necklace in it along with some stickers.
I have Melia the necklace last Sunday, which she then was heartbroken over because she left it at Gramps' house. To help ease the pain, I let her open the stickers. In the package there is some little things, it looks like maybe the two pieces are supposed to be taped together and then they might make the magic mirror off Beauty and the Beast.
Anyway....
Melia brings me these two paper pieces and tells me something, and then has to tell me again because I just can't believe she is saying this....
"Momma, can I go outside and plant these in the garden so they will grow and grow and make me a necklace?"
So... Do I lie, or do I tell the truth? Hmmm????

That is a hard one! That story is so cute!
As a wonderful mommy... you do what comes naturally! Soften the truth, so it's not so cold and hard. Then you plant something that really will grow! :O) (P.S. the necklace will find it's way back to your little Angel soon, I'm sure!)
Or ... the teacher in me says, hum. How can we make this a science experiment? Take two clear plastic cups..fill with potting soil, in one plant the stickers, in the other some seeds (next to the edge) so she can see the roots grow. Water, sit in the window.. Then watch God's seeds grow...
Sounds like fun! Love, Auntie Karla
