Sticker-iffic | 2011

Jakjak had never been interested in stickers. Not those kinds with characters or shiny slivery borders or chameleon like colors. He played with price tags and sticky tape, but that was about it. Until recently anyway.


In school, whenever somebody had a birthday, they would be bringing home treats like candies and little trinkets. There was one birthday where the goodie bag happened to contain a bunch of stickers. He started with one small heart which he stuck on his notebook. Since then, I see a few difderent kinds of stickers that were stuck on his other notebooks. 

He then had this Cars activity book that came with stickers of eyes, mouths and car decals. The point of which was to actually design your normal toy cars to make them look like characters from the movie. He managed to do some of them pretty good. Then suddenly, our weighing scale had eyes (scared the bejeezes out of me).


So now, every once in a while, I see stickers all over the house. Cars, stars, rainbows, hearts and cartoon characters. Tinkerbell now sits proudly on Jakjak's bike. There was a price tag on the TV. a butterfly on the bookshelf. And I think there will be more nooks with even more stickers. Sigh.
