This topic "piggybacks" on the priorities topic where we discussed what we gave up as working women and moms, what do you think our children give up...honestly!? What do you think they gain? Also please mention your own mothers status and your experience of a child as a SAH or WOH.

Last I heard, candy canes were candy.

Anything and everything she can get her hands on. Just go down to your local arts & crafts store and you can find a ton of things for them to do :-)

I love it, what great inspiration for the kids!


The boys and I talk about this type of stuff all the time, because I really want them to respect differences, I never want them to feel sorry or shame for being different or for others being different.

I know that, but because you are otherwise cool ;) I can overlook a bit of creative memorializing.

I guess candy canes don't count because they are supposed to be for Christmas. Apparently only specific candy can be for Halloween...
