Just a quickie today! It is late afternoon and I know that you are all busy enough (or maybe not)! This morning’s homeschooling certainly had its moments! We got through 2 of the 4 exercises with Tara and Amritsar and to be honest, just the one exercise with the little ones! I was grateful enough for that! Thor just flatly refused to participate.
On the art front however, Caleb is coming along slowly but surely! His scribbles generally end up on the tone of ever so slightly brown and mostly uninterpretable. But today saw his still life of 2 leaves (albeit on the small scale). It is a start, is it not?

It sure looks like a great start for me.
Real art is in its originality

Caleb is a budding little artist!
He did wonderfully, Andi.
I was looking through some of the art that my kids did when they were small today, I saved so much of it, my husband tells me I have to throw the papers away but I cannot bear to part with them.
Such lovely memories!

Yes, those memories are important Margie. My mother gave me a pile of my early artwork that I had forgotten existed several years ago! I was grateful that she held onto it… keep ahold of it – it is precious. 🙂

It is most definitely a start. Are those legs? A leaf creature? Endlessly inventive, these kids.. Nice one, Caleb!
