This weekend Nicholas and I made new liners for the kids' Easter baskets. When we bought these baskets last year I had a vision of replacing the generic white liners with embroidered cutesey Easter eggs on them with new liners every few years that would match their current interests. This weekend I was bemoaning the fact that I hadn't done it and wouldn't have time to before Easter and Nicholas said, "Let's do it, Mommy!" So he and I created a pattern using the liners that came with the baskets, cut out fabric, and sewed them. The pattern needs some revisions but not too bad for a first effort. And so fun to do a craft project with Nicholas again. And that was the best he has behaved in a long time. Reminder: give him chances to rise to the occasion.
