I can’t believe a week has gone by and I didn’t update once! I tell ya’, school is almost out, I’m obsessed with shopping carts and there are just not enough hours in the day. And now a new season of Top Chef has to be squeezed in… sheesh… I’m sure somehow I’ll manage. Take a peek at the latest if you have a minute. Happy Tuesday, oops! I mean Wednesday! Wow, I AM late!!

Really, what could make a mom more proud? Both my kids are sketching jewelry designs. My youngest, who just got her ears pierced, is of course stuck on earrings. My oldest, who is playing lots of Animal Crossing with me these days, is stuck on argyle because she just bought a new argyle dress for her character in the game. I think that it is all just too cute so I had to share.

So I’m cleaning up the dining room table and I find this piece of art… and it just makes me smile. Where do they get their ideas?!

So I asked my youngest about her previous princess drawing and she was quite irritated that I was curious about the chains… so I let it go. I did ask if she could draw me a happy princess and above is the drawing that I got. She told me that the princess is happily drinking wine and chatting to the prince. So I asked about the boy in the drawing, and she said he is NOT happy because no one is talking to him… I guess not everyone can be happy in any one drawing… What is a mother to do? Probably just go drink more wine!

Apparently even a princess can have a rough day… This was drawn by my seven year old… Should I be concerned? Hmmm…

Beads tomorrrow as always. I’ll have some jewelry, some holiday, and even some frogs…

School is offically out for my kindergirl. WOohOo! Today has been a little hectic squeezing in beads (find ‘em here) and kinder-fun. We had the kinder picnic today to kick off the start of summer… We also got to take home big bags of classroom goodies. Most of the kid stuff was off the walls in the classroom which of course made me kind of sad… this is the last kinder for us, time marches on… sigh… Oh well, I’ll try not to be too sappy! The drawing above was done by my kinder… It is a drawing of me. I loved the crazy hair and am I yelling or am I happy? It isn’t clear… It made me smile so I thought I’d share…

Here is a little more kinder-art from the last day of school. They drew themselves in chalk…

This drawing certainly caught my eye. It is right out of a tabloid… a princess asking “Do I have to go to jail?” I had to get the whole story from my daughter, the artist… Apparently this girl set fire to some houses when she made homemade fireworks on her 16th birthday and that is why she is asking if she should go to jail. Her crown reads 16 then a heart… because she loves being 16. I asked if the worm is telling her to go to jail and my 6 year old said “no” she didn’t really know who was saying yes… My youngest is getting the chance to draw with a permanent sharpie marker (I know… will I regret this?) and it has her drawing non-stop these days. It is amazing how a once forbidden tool can spark new interest.
