When I was a kid, stickers were much more precious. They were not only expensive, but they were a hobby -- I traded, treasured and saved them (not daring to peel them from their backing) in special sticker albums.Not so with these two, stickers are a dime a bazillion, and we use them liberally. Today, when they got home from school, they decided to put them on their faces and cleared the coffee table for a little dancing. Our song of choice today was Linda Ronstadt singing "You Took Advantage of Me"
It was good therapy. We've been under the weather lately. We got the aok from the doctor yesterday with clear lungs and good ears. Then today we found out that 5 of the 12 kids in their class have the same thing. One has developed into pneumonia and another into croup. A week and a half ago, one of the 12 had strep. Yep, preschool is a petri dish indeed!

Funny, Steph. I remember collecting stickers, too! They were treasured possesions....and I had a stash of rainbowie,unicorn, and flowerie ones. =)
Good, post and so glad to hear that the kiddos are(literally) on their feet agian. Strep seems to be the "thing" this week. I've heard of several kids who've contracted the yuckie illness...
The winter is wonderful in some respects, but the minute every one starts getting sick I wish for SPRING!
XOXOXO!
Sometimes I still come across some sticker I hoarded for years, admiring its kitschy beauty...
Stickers! Oh my, I'd forgotten all about that hobby! My cousin and I used to be big sticker collectors! We both had sticker books and we would trade. I LOVED the big puffy stickers...and would arrange them over and over again!! I remember I had some puffy Rainbow Bright ones that had glitter! My favorite! I digress!
My girls have recently discovered stickers as well. We bought them each a $1 book of stickers at Michaels and I swear there were a gazillion stickers in each book. The girls sat side by side on the couch for a couple of hours putting them in the book and on their shirts and their legs! I'm STILL finding stickers on the carpet that had fallen off!! LOL
Glad to hear your twinks are feeling better. All 3 of mine are still dealing with the runny nose and a cough.
Yes,I loved stickers too...great pics,Steph. xx
WOW that is a great picture!
