So sweet that you gave this to your mom! I love hearing stories like this:) You are so kind Ellie and did such great job! We did not have brown, so she mixed the colors together to make brown on her own. When she saw that the brown turned out after firing it, she goes, "Yessss!!!":) Your problem solving was very successful!
When Ellie brought this home and goes “Mom, close your eyes i have a surprise for you!” I nearly cried!! She has such a thoughtful and kind heart, just like her two sisters! She knows my love for turtles and I didn’t have a clue she was making one! Was definitely a very unexpected and beautiful surprise that I will cherish for years to come!!
