Six-year-old Marie was a busy girl yesterday. She spent at least a half hour making and selling tickets to her brother and sisters. The event? A chance to glimpse their own baby sister. For the price of one ticket, the children were allowed to line up near the bassinet and take a peek. Surprisingly, these tickets sold out. My children, apparently, are big fans of the new baby--groupies even. Marie even managed to convince me to buy one. This was quite a feat considering I was nursing the baby as she sold it to me, giving me the best possible seat in the house.
Please click on the thumbnail to get a look at the "tickets." I hope you can read the messages on them.
Those tickets are definitely "keepers!" How sweet!

Too cute!
My 8 yr old and her cousin made tickets this past weekend for a play they were doing. They even made "notches" on the edge of the tickets. :)
Children see such tiny details that we--regrettably--grow too hurried to observe. :)
