The Yancy and Disciples Cross giveaway winner is Julie! Congrats to you! Fun stuff coming your way!

Really, I am quite amazed, and often delighted, at the things our boys dream up.
Start with a cowboy hat.
Add couch arm horses & pillow saddles – you have a couple cowboys for the day!
If not a cowboy, how about a daring superhero, plotting his next move to take down the bad guys with his trusty cape?
Or dreaming of fighting fires while wearing great-grandpa’s real fireman gear.
In the imagination of my boy, I see courage, bravery and adventure – all things God designed to be a part of him.
As I watch that mind at work, I pray that God will use that imagination and everything that comes along with it, for His glory.
And I smile.

My 2 boys are BIG into superheroes right now. They are constantly dressing up, “saving the city”, and “getting the bad guys.” It’s really entertaining to watch . . . especially as a Mommy!
Went to the website . . . LOVE the pirate monkey shirt!
Became a fan on Facebook!
we’re a little behind on imagination here but he did use his little guitar in lieu of a horsie (like a stick horse) the other day.
My daughter (not quite 2) has a cloth tea-set. She loves to use the plates as hats. She also loves to lay her books on the floor, all in a row, and pretend she is a choo-choo train and the books are her tracks.
I visited the site and love Black TODDLER Crochet Beanie with Hot Pink Crochet Flower Hairclip and Zebra Ribbon- 12 months – 8 years!!!
Molly also found a cowboy hat recently in our basement and is now obsessed with wearing it…along with pretending to be a mommy, a professional at work, and a librarian!!
My kids do a lot of good guy vs. bad guy imaginary play.
Oh i love their imagination. I miss this in my girls they are growing up so quickly xx
My children are grown but my daughter has a two-year old niece who is adobrable. I was fortunate to get to take some photos of her while we were visiting. Her momma’s pregnant and they said to kiss her momma’s belly… which she did…. she then went over to my son-in-law and lifte his shirt and kissed HIS belly, too…… maybe not as much imagination as hilarious (to everyone but my son-in-law!) I do photography of babies, toddlers, children and am amazed at what captures their attention.
I “liked” Mim’s babies on facebook.
I visited Mimi’s Babies website and love the “beanie” style caps with the ribbons interwoven with a big flower attached… so cute for pictures.
I have two boys, and they are always playing some sort of star wars or alien pretend game. We have two caterpillars in a butterfly tent and this morning they built Lego spaceships and were aliens attacking the caterpillar monsters. They fly the ships all over the house and do flybys of the butterfly tent (no caterpillars were harmed because there is a forcefield that they can’t get through 🙂 There is always some sort of crazy imaginative play going on at our house!
I love the sock monkey beanie!!!
I taught my son how to build a fort!! 🙂 Love it!!!
My boys are Tiny and Shiny Pteranadon from Dinosaur train! They won’t eat anything unless you tell them its “fish”
Love the Owl Beanie!
I liked her on facebook! 😉

OOOO I LOVE the little hoot owl beenie. SOOO cute!
