Marin's Sun, and then some...

We are always on the lookout for a fun craft that Marin can do, and a we found a fun one!  I saved the carboard insert from a frozen pizza box (Monday's are pizza nights) and we ripped up some paper and cut some and drew and glued and Marin made a sun.  A few days later, she made a flower!  Her sun now hangs in her room, and the flower hangs where the sun is in these pictures.


 Oh.  My.  Goodness.  This is about the funniest picture EVER!  Marin will frequently grab a magazine before she heads into the bathroom and this is how I find her at least once a day.  I about fell over laughing the first time, and have since gotten used to seeing her like this.  It still makes me smile though, especially considering the only magazines we have laying around are the Ensign, The New Era and The Friend!
 I mushed lunch and Marin's craft activity into one the other day.  So, she decorated her own open-face sandwich, it was pretty cute.

 Such a sweet girl.
 At the park!
 Marin was looking for bugs.
 And still looking for bugs!
We love our little Marin, she is such a big helper and while her challenges are frustrating some days, we just smile and move on.  She is so sweet!
