tape

Tape paper into tubes. Slide flashlight into one side.

This provided two hours of entertainment for my family tonight.

Countdown 6 days to kindergarten. Today the lump in my throat wouldn't go away. Darn you lump. Darn you kindergarten. Darn you guilt that comes with motherhood.
A fierce lightsaber battle helped me release some tension.
And yes, I am wearing a princess crown. In the realm of accessorizing, mama does what Lilly says. Period.
Any lumps in your throat today?
