sketching during grandchildren's visit



Three of our grandchildren are visiting this week. Yesterday we had a bit of a tea party, trying out one of the blooming tea buds that came with my glass tea pot. This sketch shows the flower it formed as it brewed.


Today is a painting day. All three chairs are taken so I snuck a photo of them instead of painting with them. Earlier, we had a chocolate breakfast: sourdough toast with chocolate hazelnut butter, strawberries topped with the same, and chocolate milk.

  2. I love it that the kids all sketch too! Lucky, lucky children having your example and encouragement--and seeing that you honor the everyday things.

    1. And some of them are quite talented -- Jayna's painting won a ribbon at the county fair last year.
