I LOVE this post! Your kiddies will love reading this when they get older!

I’m wondering if you put the shavings on a canvas and the wax paper on top and melted them onto the canvas if it would come out just as cool – thoughts?? If encouraged I could be persuaded to try it!

Beautiful! I LOVED doing this when I was younger. My best friend and I would sit on her bed and sharpen crayons for hours just to have shavings to iron between paper.

Joey – Thanks for taking the time to leave such a wonderful comment. It is so encouraging. Loving my little ones for who they are as individuals is something I strive to do – not always successfully of course. It’s so fun to have multiple children and to see how different their personalities are. And from such a young age you can already see who they are. Always exciting.

What a lovely post! And so true…I have only one child but this is a good reminder to love her in a way that suits her individuality and specialness. And to remember to do the same with any future children 🙂 So beautifully and wisely written.

Love this simple crafts activity you did with your Roman…the perfect Valentines!

You capture your children so beautifully. It’s so important to recognize a child’s individuality and to embrace it the way you do is incredibly moving.

Ashley, this was such a beautiful post. My heart melted reading you explain the different traits of your children and the ways you like to love on them. Such a sweet post and so meaningful. If I ever have children, I hope I’ll stop and love them intentionally like this! Thanks for sharing such a personal part of your life! : )

Oh my. Now I have a greater understanding why I’m drawn to Roman. If we were only closer, he and I would koombieyah along. 🙂 Baron and Ty could put on wonderful productions from Ty’s costume cupboard..I think it’s time for a visit. Such a sweet post Ashely, and thank you for the inspiration. I read this to Ty as we were coming home from basketball, and we just had to try it. He loved it, but thought the micro-planer was more his speed vs the pencil sharpener. Now hoping I got it clean enough that we don’t eat wax next time I use it. LOL

I used to LOVE making wax paper/crayon designs. Even in college. Thanks for the reminder of this fun craft!
