I love craft stores and when I have had a rough day, I usually try to escape to one.  A few days ago, I was shopping at Michael's with my girls.  I needed to pick up a few embellishments to finish a project that I started last week.  After I picked out what I needed, the girls wanted to look at all of the Christmas decorations.  Michael's has some pretty cute stuff.  Anyway, as we were browsing, Kacey and Little Lou spotted these two guys...

...and I let them hold them.  Trouble was they weren't willing to let them go and I didn't feel like dealing with a meltdown (been seeing too many tantrums lately), so I indulged them and bought the poorly made reindeer. 

It wasn't but one day later that Kacey came to me and said, "My deers neck is broken." 

"What?"  I asked.  "Let me see."  Sure enough the stitching was coming apart on the neck.  I told her that I would have to sew it, but that I would have to do it a bit later.  Apparently, later was not soon enough and she decided to take matters into her own hands.  Gotta love a little ingenuity, right?  Her simple solution?  TAPE!  It was the logical thing to do...and all on her own...

I sure love my big girl!

This morning I took Mr. Potato Head out of the closet for the girls to play with.  After a bit I looked over and this is what I saw....

Little Lou knows that she is funny.  I love this silly girl too!

Have a happy day, everyone!
