These Pockets are NEVER Empty!!

Jacob LOVES Nature!! Ever since he could walk, you could find him head out the front door and straight to the rose bush!! He loves to pick flowers, loves to climb trees and loves the beauty of green foliage! Even though he picks flowers, he never puts them in his pockets...b/c that would smoosh them, obviously. Well, another part of Nature that Jacob loves, is the Trash that can be found in Nature! On the playground, along the sidewalk, @ the greenbelts. Everywhere he goes, his eyes are scanning the ground for ...stuff! Let me show you what kind of "Stuff" I'm talking about.......
..... finger puppets...pine cones.... coins...rubber bands....a little sandpaper....
....metal stuff....pencils....buckles.....never know when you'll need someones lost eye glass lens..... sparkly rhinestones.....
....screws.....nails......hair clips.....plastic men.....wood cubes with numbers on them.....is that a TENT Stake?......
...."beautiful green glass"...BB's.....more plastic stuff......dirt.....
.......More pine cones.......lids........

....broken stuff......wood stuff.......metal stuff......

...I always look forward to LAUNDRY day!! -Never know what I'll find!! I do get a little grossed out with the hair clips and bands, but I do find comfort in knowing that I haven't seen any ABC gum!!! And as crazy and funny as it is to see what all he can find and fit into his bottomless pockets, I love and treasure these funny moments! It's part of his personality and who he is, and I love him!!

That is awesome! Seriously. Who would ever realize the treasures that get tossed to the side?

LOL--Kev & Amie, photo #2 was from the cabin! ...So technically, I guess it's stolen property! I'll make him give it all back if you want! (*jk it's long gone to trash heaven-but he can always replace it with 'new' treasures!)

HE can sure pack a lot into those pockets. That's funny!
Lauryn is our collector. Walking the streets on our trips, she's always throwing things into her pockets. We laugh at the treasures she's found.

You should make a shadow box with some of these things. It would be so cute!!
