Thanks again for the sweet words about my little sis...she is definitely missed. And although it's been a long time, it's still an important message.

And that toy drawer is so fun for the little ones. It's saved me over the years! No matter where we live we always have a toy drawer. It's worth cramming all my dishes into just a few cupboards!

This reminded me of my great-grandmother's toy drawer in her kitchen, always a favourite spot. I spent hours on her kitchen floor, even as an older child playing with my siblings. Thanks for the flashback.

I'm so terribly sorry about your sister. Thank you for reminding us that tragic accidents do happen.

On a happier note, your post reminded me that we had a toy drawer while growing up as well. I had forgotten! It stayed affixed in time and even as college students, one could open up the toy drawer and see the same array of luvies that we had played with in the past. Unfortunately, I had forgotten to implement the same idea when my own children were young. I'll mentally shelve it for when there are grandchildren.

I am very sorry to hear about your little sister. We all carry sorrow and loss that is not visible to the eye (or blogosphere), don't we? Thank you for sharing. You may never know what lives will be impacted by this poignant reminder to be vigilant.

Hey guys, thank you for the sweet comments. Happy...

I'm so sorry to hear about your sister. Thank you for the reminder to be vigilant about choking hazards! My husband and I did some rearranging of big-kid toys today to keep our little one safe.

Love this idea!

That is a great idea! I always put tupperware on the bottom drawer, so they have something to get into, but why not just their own toy drawer? Very sorry to learn about your little sister, but thank you also for the toilet paper rule of thumb.
I can't help but notice how cool your kitchen looks! When are we going to get a home tour of your own? (wink wink)

Cute idea! Please come visit Tulips&Tulle : )

I really love your photography! I find myself returning to your site just for a glimpse.
(toy drawer: I always did the same, too (... and my youngest is named Gray, too!)

This is such a perfect idea. Thank you!

Great idea. But more than that, thank you for sharing the very real consequences of being careless. I'm so sorry about your sister.
