Most kids do see the magic in nature. It's sad that so many people lose that as they grow up. I still have some of the things I collected when I was little and I've only just realised how precious that is. I'm glad they were kept. Interesting sticks, shells, stones... Even a couple of bones I found on the beach!
It was very kind of whoever sent those crystals. I adore her thank you note - "to the wizerd"
Thank you for the kind comments! We are very proud of our little girl. I have a feeling she too, will keep this box for a very long time
I did the same when I was little, having small altars in my bedroom and small gifts from nature. I was a weirdo as well and every kid called me a witch or cat burner...never understood that name considering I had three beloved kitties growing up. Cats always have a place in my heart. I guess it was just their way of being hateful. Worms and ice balls were thrown at my head quite often. Someone even killed a frog and left it mutilated body on my front door step.
Kids can be so cruel. And my daughter gets her uniqueness honestly as my husband is also unique. I wouldn't have our family any other way though.
I wish I had kept up my nature gifts but life took me on a crazy ride and I lost all that. So seeing Avanee embrace herself the way she is, is inspiring to me!
It was such a lovely surprise when we received the package full of crystals! She loves them and takes care of them like little breathing beings
yes, I giggled at the cuteness of her thank you note.
I love the kitty pic of your icon or avatar thingie. Maybe when you have little ones they will take care of your nature gifts
but it was so old and dry already..)
