presents

I sense a theme!

Loyal readers know that I got some rocks for Mother’s Day from my daughter Sydney, age 5. I’m happy to report that my husband got a BIG rock for Father’s Day from Sydney!

In case you can’t see, she painted a rock and then a teacher wrote on it:

“My Dad Rocks!”

Awww.

Hope you and yours had a happy Father’s Day out there! What were some of the presents you gave or received this Father’s Day?

I Got A Rock

Remember this infamous scene from “It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown“?

“I got five pieces of candy!”
“I got a chocolate bar!”
“I got a quarter!”
Charlie Brown: “I got a rock.”

Well, I got a rock for Mother’s Day.

And I love it!

Actually, I got several rocks and some awesome bits and pieces that my daughter Sydney, 5, collected for me. About 2 weeks before Mother’s Day, she started bringing treasures home in her pockets. She scolded me for trying to look at these treasures. Working diligently, she stored and hid the treasures in a small box until she presented me with the collection for Mother’s Day.

You’ll see I received rocks, some feathers, a spring, leaves, seeds, and a snakeskin (a weathered piece of plastic grocery bag, but –shh!– don’t tell Sydney that’s what it is).
