Our lives changed this last summer, with the simple discovery of “treasures”.
It all began last summer up at the River with the Phillips family, the day we made stepping stones for their trees.
Grandma and Grandpa Phillips brought up little glass stones to place in their stepping stones, and afterwords, a few were left over, which then got put in the sandbox, and the children dug around for them, finding them was like finding a treasure. Hence the name.
Tucker brought a few treasures home, which he placed very carefully in special spots so they wouldn’t get lost.
The joy of treasures was renewed when on Christmas Truman gave Tucker a bag of “treasures”, and Tucker was thrilled.
With a new remembrance of these special things, he started to save his money, and then purchased 2 more bags from the dollar store.
My first thoughts were “Rocks? What are you going to do with these little stones?”
Well He lines them up, makes smiley faces, plays a bowling like game with them and just loves to play with them. Also, he can’t wait for the snow to melt, so he can place them in his sandbox, which I am sure Truman will love, because lately he loves to be a pirate, and what pirate doesn’t love digging for buried treasure?
