My kids take their crafts very serious. I mean they will use bananas to hold down their artwork and dare anyone to have a snack.
He made the Golden Gate Bridge. Not bad for never seeing the bridge. 
Now this artist – she is our patient artist.She played with the design-over and over again.
She has the snowflake down!
Try it! It is harder than it looks!
Then we have this Princess.
She is all artist. Meaning she has a creative side that doesn’t blend well with crazy rules or directions that her teacher may give her regarding lines of symmetry. She sees what are outside the lines as a pure palette for more color and more creativity.
It took her a long process for her to create her “snowflake.” This was one of the objects she came up with – although I liked it – she had directions she had to follow. 
Sometimes we have to start over many times before we get it right.
It is a process.
It is sometimes overwhelming.
It involves do-overs and crying out for help!
But, in the end – the reward is there.
Yeah, I’m not really talking about q-tips anymore.
I’m talking about life.
Selah!
Blessings to you! You are loved!
Got the idea from a Tweet on Twitter! Sometimes I just love hearing a good inspirational tweet! Are you following me, @loving5kids?
These are beautiful children – looking at their expressions as they focus on what they are creating one can see the wonder come alive! They will always remember these moments – good job Momma!
Thanks for the “tweet”! Glad your kids had fun with the crafts.
Marcia 🙂
