Another Phone Call


I received sweet phone call from Kimmy the other day.
"Can you help me with a project?"
"Sure!", I said, without questioning.

Kimmy, Homeschools her children.
Lulu is now "First Grade" and
Levi and Ila May are in "Preschool".

Kimmy saw this blog site, about Busy Bags.
 She thought this idea could help keep
 Levi and Ila May busy, 
 while she has one-on-one with Lulu.

Weaving, Puzzles and so much more.
Perfect for the little ones.

This activity is a Foam Shape Puzzle.
The child copies and matches the left hand side
 with the loose pieces, on the right side.

I was having so much fun making these items..........

Then this happened!

Little Miss Ila May was going down a slide and caught 
her foot on the side of the slide and fractured her tibia.

Before a loved one goes down a slide, read this:


Ila May is doing just fine.

Now, the Busy Bags items are in fast production!
I'm busy making more Busy Bag items.

  1. Oh my goodness, she is simply adorable, even with that pretty pink cast on. I love that little sock on her other foot. Bless her sweet heart. Hugs from here. What a terrible thing to happen, but how wonderful to have such a great family around her.

    Love the bag idea!

    P.S. Re your comment ... that was my sweet niece, talking to pie on the video, but we do sound alike ... Southern to the bone.

  2. Christine, I'm so sorry for Ila Mae. However that polish is precious and she looks as if she is coping quite well. Better than her mom and gma for sure! I am going to read that for sure! Oh my goodness! Those little puzzles are such a good idea! I'll check that out too.
    Bless your heart!

  7. First of all, I want to tell you that your new banner picture is beautiful!
    Secondly, the quote you shared on the sidebar is an most important reminder to me.

    I felt sad seeing little Ila May's foot wrapped up. So quickly accidents can happen. Thank you for sharing the link with us. And once again, your creative touches inspire me. What a fun project!

  10. Love the idea of the busy bags, but I nearly forgot about them when I saw the sweet little leg in the cast. That last picture is just plain priceless. She looks quite proud of the cast, doesn't she? What a trooper, and a beautiful one to boot. (No pun intended... boot.)

    I hope she heals quickly!
