So beautiful!

Altered 'The God Mother's Almanac' (cover only)

My friend Kristina is Simon Michael Kapaun G's.... God Mother!
How exciting!!!

If I could choose a God Mother....I'd choose Kristina in a heart beat. She is an amazing person with deep faith.

After consulting with friends and receiving a big 'YES' for an  idea...I gifted Kristina with a copy of one of the most amazing books I've ever read and referred to over and over and over when my children were young-ins. My sister Mary gave me a copy and it definitely had some wear on it, if you know what I mean. As you can see...the cover of the book is personalized just for Kristina.

One of the alts made to the altered cover (different that photo)...I moved the cross charm to the baby and oh yes, I tried to darken Kristina's pretty hair.  Simon even has an older brother. The book has a few surprises and some colorful envelopes attached inside to keep little things for memories. Also a few children birthday cards....she may wish to use along the way....

The book cover states-
The Most Complete Book ever written on loving and living with small children...everything from discipline and independence to cooking, crafts,
and other adventures.

Kristina can learn more and more about little Simon in his growing up as a child. What I loved best are all the  fascinating ideas of spending time together whether making home made play dough, reading a story or taking a walk to discover and learn about trees and flowers. Kristina will show and tell about God who will be in the center of it all.

God is so good. All the time.
