Grace made sun catchers today using picture frames and colored glass pieces. First, Grace removed the back out of the picture frames so that only the clear glass remained within the frames. Grace spread a generous amount of white glue on the glass and added the colored glass pieces. Once the glue dries we'll attach small hooks on the side of the frames and add string or ribbon so that the sun catchers can be hung in a window. Grace worked very, very hard today to make sun catchers for Maddy & Poppy, Memere & Pepere, Uncle Adam, and her cousins Rose & Kimberlee. Grace also made one for Daddy and one for Jack's window. Grace made her sun catchers during Jack's morning nap. When Jack woke up and saw his sun catcher he was so excited. He kept clapping his hands over and over again and Grace couldn't have been any happier by his response! I'll post pictures of Grace's beautiful sun catchers once the glue completely dries. The sun catchers turned out to be so pretty and they will provide a beautiful burst of color all winter long!

Oh, we are super-duper excited to read that we are receiving one of Grace's sun catcher's!!
It looks so beautiful! It was so nice for Jack to acknowledge Grace's hard work. They are the best sister-brother team.
