IF: Scattered


It has been a while since I have been on the ol' blog!  I will try and stop by to say "hi" more often...life has been SO busy lately it has turned my world upside down.  I used to say I was busy, but that was before I was BUSY!

So, this week I decided to participate in IF.  Immediately when I heard the subject was "scattered" I got the image of a little girl creating and her supplies and drawings scattered all over the floor.  I was/am totally this girl, and I see this every day in my daughter's room.

Avas_artIsn't she something? I just adore her drawings with all my heart.  My son also loves to draw, but video games have a pretty strong hold on him so he rarely does it(sigh).

I did this drawing when I was in first grade.  It was part of a book about a big sister mouse.  I remember sitting at my desk(or on the floor) writing stories and drawing for hours and I was perfectly content every moment of it.  I think sometimes I need to channel THAT girl again- and remember that doing what I love should be simple and fun!
