In an attempt to minimize the distance between us and family (and to save $25 by NOT ordering a personalized board book online),
MK and I came up with this great craft idea!
FAMILY FLASH CARDS
MK cut up black foam board into squares. I found some pictures of Norah's immediate family members, resized, printed, laminated, and mounted each picture a black board square. On the back of the squares, I labeled each person and color-coded to differentiate between Wiley and Kole.
Norah LOVES them!
And I'm pretty certain she understands each person is a family member (someone she knows).
Here is Norah super stoked to see the picture of Grandma W (my ma!).
Norah was super jazzed about the photo of (Uncle) Justin, and out of everyone, she pronounces his name the most clearly (Jut - tin). She really tries to say "Grandma" or "Carrie", but they come out a bit jumbled still.
Look for videos once Norah's speech becomes a bit more clear. FUN!!!
I tired my best to look through all of our photos and photos on the internet to include everyone, but I'm still in need of a couple of photos. I know some of you hate having your picture taken, but please do this for Norah!
PICTURES WE STILL NEED:
Great Grandma Kole, Grandma Jody,
& Great Grandpa and Great Grandma Mabon!
(If any other family members have great close-ups of someone listed above - please send them to me or MK! Thank you!)
I hope you all had a great New Year,
and that this is another year in which you are drawn closer to our Creator.
Love to you all.
