Well, it seems I have become much slower at posting to this site during the past month. I have no thoughts on the cause of this, except to say that I stayed busy all month, just not on activities that fit into the Daily Fiber Fun theme.
To kickstart my blog for December, let me introduce my family’s newest artist.
During our recent visit with the family, my daughter confided to me that Laura Lu would very much enjoy making art with her grammy.
It was true. I only got her started with a few techniques in drawing with crayon and painting with watercolor. After that she wanted to make art nearly every day.
The last day of our visit, she made this one.
According to the artist, this is a playground. Gramps and I liked it so much, we asked to keep it. That request gave the artist pause. Would she part with her work, or not? After a few moments of deliberation, she agreed that we could take it home.
What followed next was a small flood of playground drawings, all of which were given to us. According to her mother, when bedtime came, the artist insisted on taking crayons and paper to bed with her, because she didn’t want to stop drawing.
Have I actually become a role model for the next generation? It feels great.
