Snowman Factory


I had this idea that Evelyn and I would make foam snowmen to add in with our Christmas cards this year. Great idea, slow progress. We need like 47 of them and it took like and hour to get about 18 done last night. The thing is, it's fun though. I like to sit there chatting with her and being the glue master (I have to do the glue part as she HATES to get glue on her fingers) and watching the parts that she picks for each one and the places she chooses to put them. Some of her snowmen have very original faces indeed. It's so cute to watch her tiny fingers manipulating these little bits of foam, as she takes the whole thing very seriously. She worries about the men not being able to see until she gets the eyes on. So remember if you get a crooked little snowman in with your card, it was made with the utmost care and consideration, even if his eyes seem as of they are about to melt off of his face.... and if you don't get one, well we just ran out of time.
