Kids' artwork .... I wish I had kept more of it,
but what I kept is truly precious to me.
This drawing by my daughter makes me smile
every time I look at it ! She was probably 5
at the time she made it.
This butterfly was probably already cut
out, but my son added daubs of paint
and it was folded and pressed to create
a design ... love this one too!
He was in preschool.
There are so many gifts we're given over time.
Some of them are practical and we use them for their intended purpose.....
Some of them are impractical and perhaps sit on a shelf for a time .....
But none of them measure up to the memories that stir within us
when it's something created from the heart ---
especially the heart of children!
I'm in the midst of my "summer project" (because we spend so much time indoors due to the heat) so I always try and rustle up some kind of project that will keep me busy indoors -- watching hours of TV while munching bon-bons isn't good for the waistline! This year it's working on my scrap books and digitizing some of the more memorable items. Like these!
