This is how Caleb sleeps. Always. You put him down, he rolls over. He's done this since he's been able to roll! Don't let that binkie fool you- it's only for playing with after he wakes up. He still has NO crutch.
Caleb's Ginger Thin face :-) What? You love those little cookies too? They are a treat here- one package doesn't last long at all!
Who is behind that camera anyway?
So, the overwhelming answer to my last post was a no. The only thought that generated any interest was our eggs, so I guess we need to go buy more chickens!
I would like to know if anyone has any suggestions for fostering that enterpreneurial spirit? My girls are always making things and wanting to sell them. From hair bands, to toy horse bridles, to headbands, to scarves... I don't exactly want to tell them that these items are not really needed, because for kids they are great fun. But both girls are adamant about wanting to do a booth at the Farmer's Market, and constantly asking about making an online store, or having a yard sale. How do I encourage their creativity but not allow them to exist in la-la land about making millions on fingerknitting at the same time? (Who am I kidding? Aren't we all wishing we'd come up with a million-dollar business? -that is, pre-Obama-taxes. I don't suppose I want that dream anymore! LOL!)

I have a friend whose 2 daughters (high school and college) make rings and necklaces to sell. They give a large percentage to helping women in Africa and other places. Maybe your girls could do something on a smaller scale, maybe make jewelry for other girls? Here is an article about my friends girls. http://www.ocregister.com/articles/jewelry-371034-girls-breanna.html

Thanks Heidi! That was very inspiring. It's a great idea, one I will discuss with my girls. I know they have talked about it before, such as when we are doing a special funds drive at church.
