Here is a picture of a shadowbox Jenny and her Mother made last week:
Items in the box include (from top to bottom): The pink label that was on MK's bassinette in the hospital nursery, MK's little hospital bracelet-thingy, one of the skully's she wore in the hospital (Daddy's little girl!), the pink bow on the skully came from the pink bow on our front door, her first formal picture (taken in the hospital), and a dried rose given to Jenny while in the hospital.
GREAT job, and great to remember those precious first days of her life. Or, her "little life", as I've learned that it's alot cuter to add "little" to anything related to the baby, e.g., instead of "Honey, look at the baby sleep", it's "Honey, look at the LITTLE baby sleep in her LITTLE bouncy seat, with her LITTLE blanket," etc., though we have both found that when your heart melts, the "L" phoneme becomes a "W", i.e. "wittle feet" (NOT the wittle like with wood, that's "whittle", and in any event no sharp objects can come near the baby), and the above thought becomes "Wook at the Wittle baby sWeep". Perhaps a later post will include detailed instructions on adding "ie" or "y" to the end of anything regarding MK, such as her "leggy" or, from an earlier post, "jammy's" (which is a tough one, because "jammys" includes dropping the prefix "pa"). Sometimes I've found it is proper linguistically to add an "s" before the "ie" ending, e.g. "footsies", which, when combined with symptoms of heart-melting syndrome, can be considered "wittle footsies"...OK, FOR CRYING OUT LOUD, I'LL STOP!
