Mother's Day Tree Cans

 I didn't get any surprise gifts for Mother's Day from the girls since they are with me 24/7

so I decided to help them make me something.

I like wind chimes and don't nearly have enough of them

but I do have tin cans.

So I poked holes into the tops of the cans

let the girls draw all over them with Sharpies

and thread yarn through the holes

(I tied the knots)

C cut the yarn to the length she wanted

I strung them up to the tree we hang out under

they were just the right height for the girls to be able to reach

Who would've thought that plain tin cans strung up in a tree would be so much fun

and the 'clink' mixed with laughter is music to my ears

I plan on adding to the tree every time we use a can

Simple and fun

I couldn't have asked for anything better
