"I mourn the loss of thousands of precious lives, but I will not rejoice in the death of one, not even an enemy. Returning hate for hate multiplies hate, adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars. Darkness cannot drive out darkness: only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate: only LOVE can do that." - Martin Luther King Jr.

"I have been impressed with the urgency of doing. Knowing is not enough, we must apply. Willing is not enough, we must do." Leonardo de Vinci

rounding up your little picaso...

When we love our things, we take better care of them. With that in mind, how about keeping your Little Picaso's goodies in something she can't help but adore - like with these crayon (shown) & colored pencil roll-ups. They can be found at http://www.etsy.com/shop/twolittletots.

If you need to buy by volume, then house the motherload in the cupboard while giving your little one a great selection to work with. It's a simple case of supply & demand. Wax will abound on the carpet with crayons-for-the-masses, while the chosen few will be coveted.

Great for travel too.

RESPECT. reclaim. revitalize. your space. - Visual Girl
