NO SLAMMING THE DOOR!!!

how many times have i said these words to my children? i’m not sure what it is about the door, but it is just so irresistable to those little hands. which is precisely why i don’t want them slammed … they love little fingers! so, to avoid all finger injuries, my dear friend gifted me with her new creation:

TH E   D O O R   B U M P E R.

at my christian university, we had a ‘shoe-in-the-door’ policy. when there was a friend of the opposite sex in your dorm room, a shoe should be placed in the doorway as a sign to others walking the halls and for accountability {what exactly would you do if the door was open for all to hear/see? probably not much}.

while i’m not exactly worried about the dating practices of my four-year-old, i certainly do like being able to hear what’s going on in his room.

perhaps you do too? these door bumpers will be introduced soon by ARMOMMY.COM {i’m just the lucky prototype girl}.

a special birthday gift

my sweet little friend turned 4 this weekend and i wanted to make her something special.

i found this glittery box at paper source, created a little flower for the top and a tag to label her special treasures. every little girl likes to collect special things, right?

inside was an assortment of my creations … stickers, book bag tags, personal stationery & a flower clip.

and my favorite touch was this scripture … while she collects her own special treasures, i hope she will always know that she chosen by God as HIS special treasure.

happy birthday noemi!
