it goes by fits and spurts - mostly because i can only get to it late at night. this is a combination of four or five days. the weekends have been clogged with responsibilities. hopefully this weekend i can focus on being creative.
for those that wanted an update on the 365....so far so good. though there have been a couple of days i wouldn't show anyone and just did the functionary shot.

the weekend went by much too quickly. as did the week. i kept the girls while mommy and daddy were out of town. the light was bad as it stormed most of the weekend. the shot was from naptime today when ga finally got some sleep. last night she insisted on waiting on me to go to bed and then woke me up at 2:00 a.m. to let me know that i was snoring. *blush* (actually her words were 'you sound like a monster') ahhh, yes, the charm of a five year old.
they both have perfected the art of crocodile tears. i try to stand firm but there are some days i just pick my battles.
so....tonight i think i will get to bed early. i need it.
Little kids are the best, aren't they? Lol!!

ReplyDeleteI like the idea of an art journal, seeing days and a life through images, a great perspective. I read once where someone took a trip to Europe and kept an art journal, rather than a written journal, to record their journey.
ReplyDeleteahhhh.... out of the mouths of babes,... in the morning light that is a funny comment. But at 2 a.m. I might have been a tad grumpy to hear that. hee heee.....
ReplyDeleteonce again....you are an amazing aunt and they are so lucky to have you !
