You Capture: Mornings

Grace ran over to my side of the bed and began climbing over me. I asked her, "What are you doing?" She ever-so-briefly stopped climbing to reply, "You know what I'm doing!"

It was time for the Baby Deer Game.

Grace gave her instructions: "Pretend you wish you had a baby deer and you see this bush shaking."


OK..."Oh, how I wish I had a baby deer! Why is this bush shaking? Could it be a baby deer?"


It's a little hard to get excited about a shaking
pillowbush so early in the morning, but she sure is cute. Plus, after I find my baby deer, she usually does a silly little deer dance for me after she snuggles with me. Trust me...the baby deer dance does not translate well in photos. I tried.

Check out other You Capture entries at I Should Be Folding Laundry, and join in on the fun!



P.S. Check out my giveaway for 250 die cut business cards! Leave a comment on that post by September 20th for a chance to win.

    My oldest son hides under the pillow not to get up. I guess he thinks that I won't notice he's there then.

    Very cute! I'm finding that games like this are very helpful in motivating things like brushing teeth, getting jammies on, heading up stairs for nap etc...
