While I'm Away

So while I'm away I wanted to do something special for my kids. I thought about it alot and finally came up with these mailboxes. Every day my mom is going to put something inside for my kids from us. Here are some of the ideas. (I know it's not completely creative but I was short on time.)

I found these little albums at Michaels. I told the kids to draw pictures of their favorite things they did while I was away.

"Give grandma or grandpa a hug...then have fun decorating this mug."

Some cute little toys from Michaels.

I asked the kids to use the stickers to make a

card for Haylee.

Picture of each child on they day they were born.

On the back I wrote about the day they joined our

family.

At Joann's they had these cute make your own

puzzles. I wrote - "without you a piece of me is

missing."

Online I found some fun things about China

and some puzzles. I also have some cards with

Chinese characters to copy.

"Bubbles, Bubbles... mind grandma and grandpa

and don't get in trouble."

"Even when I'm away you are still in my heart"

I also have a couple of other things that I didn't take pictures of. One is a card from their dad. That will be a treat because he rarely writes anything to them. And another is a gift card to Wendy's. I hardly ever let them get the kid's meal and they'll get a kick out of ordering and paying for it with their own gift card.
