my little artist




i just love creative moments like this. i really wanted a family photo drawn by one of my children to hang on the wall and layla has really been into drawing lately. so, one day when she came home from school in a really good mood i asked her if she would draw me "a really colorful picture of the whole family." she got right to work and it was so much better than i even imagined it could be. i just know it will be one that i treasure forever. i suppose i should get you a photo of the finished product. it is adorable. she drew ollie in my arms and eislee patiently waited for layla to draw her. she even drew our two cats and our baby chicks. i'm really feeling the need for more of this wonderful family creative time. who knows, maybe today...
