Happy 4th of July everyone! I am quickly popping in to share with you a cute idea that my five year old came up with today. Zephan LOVES watermelon. It’s the kind of love where he could happily eat it for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Come to think of it, that is exactly what he did! Zeph particularly loves the “Zephy-sized” watermelons (as he calls them) from the grocery store.
This morning, Matt cut off the top of the watermelon and let Zeph scoop out the fruit with a spoon. When finished, Zephan decided to draw a face on his watermelon and asked Matt to help him carve it out. So cute! Indeed, why should Halloween have all the fun? I think everyone should don some watermelon jack o’lanterns this Independence Day! Don’t you?

So cute! I also love the cake plate with the strawberries on top! I agree that the kids love to be part of our blogs, especially giving ideas or including their pictures.

I think Zephan had a brilliant idea! This may very well be the next big craze for decorating for the 4th!

Zephan says, “Thank you Miss Sheila!”. He’s sitting next to me at the moment and grinning like a cheshire cat :)!

Sooo cute!! And what a good Mama you are for not only letting him make a 4th of July Jack O’Lantern, but for sharing it with all of us too. I’m sure he’s beaming with pride and will remember it forever. Hope you have a great 4th!
xo,

Yes! There are so many times that my boys will say to me, “Mommy, you can share this on your blog if you want to.” It is so sweet and I want them to know that their creativity will “make it on the blog” too :). Thanks for commenting Laurie. Zephan will be thrilled!
