Moms are so wonderful, especially when they decide to keep mementos from their kids. It’s exactly what this mom did, and I think it’s the best thing ever.
What I really love about it is the idea of keeping the Christmas spirit alive long after your kids have grown up. I’m going to share more about this with you, so keep reading below.
Let me ask you, do you typically keep things from your kids’ past.
I’m talking about their artwork or stuff they have made in school? If you do, then this story here will really warm your heart. Are you ready?
This mom decided to do something special for Christmas.
She had the foresight to laminate her kids’ holiday-themed artwork each year. And now that her kids are all grown up, she puts these art pieces all over the house. Oh my goodness, wow!
These special works of art now hang on her kitchen cabinets during Christmas time.
She actually treats it as a yearly ritual. It isn’t Christmas until she gets out her “art box” and starts putting these up. How wonderful is that, huh?
I mean, isn’t it so festive to have your kids’ artwork displayed like this during the holidays?
I wonder what the kids think of it when they come to visit? I bet they love it very much too. At least I hope so, hee-hee.
It’s especially cool to see now that her kids are 28 and 31-years old.
Oh my goodness, you’re telling me she kept this artwork all this time? That’s pretty amazing, huh? Even though some of these are a bit faded, they still warm her heart.
Well, this idea definitely resonated with fellow parents.
After this lady posted the pictures and the caption, she got over 5,000 likes on Facebook. That’s quite the accomplishment. Don’t you think so? Wow, I have to admit I’m pretty impressed.
Many of them commented how much they loved this idea.
I bet they wished they thought of it too. The fact that she came up with the concept of laminating it is pretty genius. Don’t you think so? That’s some quick thinking there.
One gentleman even shared his girlfriend’s amazing idea.
As it turns out, she, too, kept her children’s artwork. But instead of hanging it up on her walls or cabinets, she turned them into Christmas ornaments. OMG! I’m in love with this too. Aww!
I can’t believe how thoughtful some parents are, huh?
This mom’s quick thinking totally changed how this family celebrates the holidays. Now they have memories they can truly treasure for the rest of their lives.
Are you obsessed with this as much as I am? This idea really warmed my heart.
