pottery and cocoa

My Little Frankie has been asking to visit our local pottery shop for months, so on this stormy Saturday morning we finally did it. Although, I'm not sure if he was more excited about painting pottery or the promise of hot cocoa from the adjoining coffee shop. He woke me up at 5:30 this morning and said he was ready to go. And when I informed him that the shop did not open until 9am, his response was, "I want to go now and just sit in the car and wait until it opens!"  I love that little man, he makes me smile 5:30 in the morning.

The (handmade) holidays are just around the corner, and he decided that a "cow" coffee mug would be perfect for Grandma Shelley! I love how thoughtfully he decided on his color scheme - green on the inside, and yellow with black "cow spots" on the outside!
