Fun with pipe cleaners

Who knew? What does red, fuzzy long and twisty equal? At least an hour of fun, that's what. Kiira got a book on making different things with pipe cleaners for her birthday. Well, if anyone is wondering, we now have bracelets, caterpillers, brown bears, a house, a flower and even a duck. However, my personal favorite, for many reasons was the peace sign. First of all, where had she ever seen a peace sign? Second of all, while all the other items had been imitated out of a book, the peace sign came from her imagination. I love the fact that she was even thinking of this. Amidst the wars, the violence, even the unkindness that happens day to day between people, this little peace sign reminds me that there is hope. Perhaps if each of us had a little reminder in our lives, it would be that much better.
