Lately, Lily has been talking about wanting to give things to the baby when he arrives, a special present. Finding things in her room to give, asking to buy something special from the shops, and so on. We are working on a special gift for the kids to give to their new sibling - as well as a gift from baby to them (shhh!!) but in the meantime I suggested the baby would love a special drawing from her when he is born, so she eagerly got to work...
'I'll just put on some love heart stickers to say 'I love you'. Four 'I love you's' to the baby!' Lily said. |
A lot of love contained in this abstract creation (featuring traced shapes with faces added, spiderman, butterfly, love hearts and so on!) |
awww, sweet children. I love that Lily is such a beautiful big sister, helping out Eli to make his creation. She is going to love having a baby to dote on!
ReplyDeleteThis is really adorable. Your family is just so great. It is quite overwhelming to think of them all looking at these pictures when the three of them have been friends for years.
ReplyDeleteawww Julia that made me quite teary and overwhelmed myself to think of the kids looking back on this as grownups! I mean, I am really doing all this blogging for them but I kinda forget that a lot of the time that they will actually be reading it! I truly hope and pray they read this one day, much grown and dear friends, and see where it all began! :)
