A Message from
THE PUBLISHER
Hey y ’ all !
I just wanted to take a minute to welcome you to Southern Sprouts Magazine ! Most all of us have children in our lives whether they ’ re our own , our grandchildren , nieces & nephews , a friend ’ s kids , neighborhood kids or perhaps you teach a Sunday school class at your church . This magazine is for and about our li ’ l belles & beaus and will bring you lots of fun and inspiring ideas to help you not only raise children but to truly enjoy them along the journey . Children are one of God ’ s most precious gifts loaned to us . They can keep you young at heart and remind you every day to just let your worries go and be happy . We hope you ’ ll share your children with us by sending in photos and silly things they say for each issue !
We ’ ve started off small with this issue , as this is a new venture for Southern Belle Magazine . Future issues will continue to grow in order to bring you all of the kid ideas we can possibly jam into its pages . So grab a child , plop them on the couch beside you and enjoy Southern Sprouts together ! They ’ ll love it too .
Blessings to your family !
Amy
