  4. hey- I’m just a “lurker” on here, but thought I would add my bookmark idea.

    I take a picture of my son- fairly small- and glue it to a piece of colorful cardstock that I have cut into a rectangle. I write a nice saying below the picture.

    I then use those pre-made laminating pouch things that you can get at the office store and laminate it. After that, I punch a hole in the top and thread a nice ribbon through. BIG hit with the grandparents… who own a book store! :)
