Paper Doll

Maddy made this absolutely adorable paper doll set for Grace. She handmade each dress out of fabric and ribbon, laminated them, and added magnets on the back of each one so that the dresses would stick to the doll. Grace had great fun choosing dresses for her paper doll (Mommy did too...shhh!). Grace also did a wonderful job finding each dress that I described using a variety of adjectives. Thank you, Maddy, for this very cute activity. We love it!
Sadly, Maddy & Poppy left for Vermont this morning. Thank you, Maddy & Poppy, for another wonderful visit. Grace has been talking about you both nonstop since you left. She is reliving all of the special times she spent with you this week! We miss you.

To Our Dearest Grace and Your Wonderful Parents,
We had such a spectacular time at your house this week. It was so nice that Mommy and Daddy were able to have a little time together away. But, of course, the best part was that we could spend time together. We laughed so hard at our rendition of "All Around the Kitchen" that we performed for Mommy and Daddy! I am so happy that Ella enjoyed her outdoor bath, that the Painted Lady butterflies are free, that a fairy visited our sweet little home, that we went to Cabela's, that the walks with Poppy were special, that we tried a new form of art, that we bought your new brother his first outfit, that your piano recital was such a success and that we had so much fun with your garden hose! Thank you for all the most amazing and special moments, the brilliant dinners on the porch and another memory that is stored away in our forever memories.
Our Best Love and Thanks Always (with a smile :)
Maddy and Poppy

Grace, your Maddy is so clever and so in love with her beautiful granddaughter. The things that she finds for you or makes for you
are a child's delight. It is joyous to see you at play with something that was especially thought of and made for you. You are Special! And so is your Maddy!
XOXOXOXOXOXOXO,
Memere

Got Gracie, Jack & Eve?
