My boys are eating it up and will move from super hero to favorite food to coolest transformer. I don't mind what they write about as long as they are being creative. By the time we got to writing about their names, they were pros. Here is what they came up with...
Ben-- (who wanted to do BENJAMIN because he's an over-achiever)
B- blue eyes
E- enjoys eating ice cream
N- nice
J- joke teller
A- awesome
M- magnificent
I- intelligent
N- neat
Luke--
L- loves movies
U- underwear (they all thought this was hilarious.. Luke does happen to wear it-- finally.)
K- kind to others
E- eats pizza
Zack did surprisingly well...
Z- Zorro (it was a hard choice between Zorro and Zelda)
A- apples
C- cookies
K- cake (almost, kid... I was happy with the K sound)
While they were busy writing, I was playing on the computer doing my own poems. I created something I might print and frame for their bedrooms... (click on the picture to enlarge.)



cute, no? I also did them in black and white, just because rainbows can be kinda girly.
It took me about 30 minutes to whip these up... I was thinking about doing our last name with things we believe in/stand for. Hey. maybe I will go into business. Place your orders before Christmas.
ps. Can you believe it's been EIGHT YEARS since that tragic day? I cannot.








not this cute anymore!

cute, yes! In fact so cute I just might have to place an order!
I love you blog, Janet. We hope all is well. -Tim
SO CUTE. I would totally hang those in my kids rooms. Love it!
i want to order. tell me what i need to do! :)
i covet your ingenious ideas.
if you're really interested-- we could do some kind of trade. Email me with what you want yours to say-- the letters with all the adjectives and what colors you want. I will send you some sort of rough draft and you can tell me what you think.
Since they are photos, I can just email them to you and you can print whatever sizes you want.
When you're thinking about the words to describe, put them in order of what you want largest to smallest. I wanted the words that described them best to be the most noticeable... and let me know if you like a particular font.
oh, you are a saint! I do want them, what do you want to trade??
how expensive/time consuming is it to make a sling? Or what do you have to offer?
You are so creative! I admit, I'm a little jealous about that and your homeschooling skilz. I've considered it, but I just don't think I have it in me. Besides, my kids love school and would probably kill me if I took them out!
