WIP-having a little fun!!!

Just a quick one today to show my current project (well one amongst many) my little one sat at the table the other day and was playing with the paper and pencils, apart from stick men and just managing to write the first couple of letters of his name he has not actually drawn that much that from an adults perspective you would recognise. He very proudly called me over to share with me his current masterpiece...I was already to 'Oh' and 'Arr' about it then my draw dropped...'Me draw a Moo Cow Mommy' He excitedly pointed to the letters and went in a farm yard voice ' Look...Moo'
It was one of those moments that if your a Mom you will know what I am on about if your not a Mom you will think me a little pathetic! Anyway as a creative Mom I had to do something to mark this occasion. SO I headed off for my best wool felt and photocopied the picture (high resolution) and sort of traced it on to the felt...I plan to embroider it and who knows, a book bag, quilt hanging or a cushion something like that...Mmmmm best get of and get the threads out. Have a great weekend.

That is great! A friend of mine frames a lot of her kids pictures and I wish that I had done that too.

A brilliant idea :)

I wish my kids had a mum like you!

What a fab idea - and what a great piccie for him to do. Look foward to seeing the end result. Maybe I should try to do something a bit more creative than subtly put my daughters "works of art" into the recycling when she's not looking!

This is a great drawing by such a young one! Cant wait to see the end product. I was so sorry to hear about the road rage thing last week - I hope you and the kids are ok now.
