Chilling, Relaxing, Etc.


Sometimes a box and markers gives me a minute to unload the dishwaster.  Artistic callings are developing here I can sense it.

    1. That is what was so nice about it - he had a bit of independence on his own for a piece of the day which was great!

      Thanks for stopping by Suzie!

  5. I love everything about this photo. The lighting, the activity I think my favorite is tiny toes with markers on them. So darling.

    1. Hi Leslie,

      Those toes were not the only thing covered in marker. His hands basically turned brown and blue with a couple of other colors mixed in. He had it on his face and neck too from his hands wiping at them. He took a nice long bath that is for sure!!

      Have a great weekend and thanks for stopping by,
      Rebecca

    1. I love this - the fantastic life of a child with a marker. It really is - I am always wondering what he is thinking about when he is drawing. He doesn't mention to much about what it is he is drawing although the other day he told me he was making apple soup.

      Thanks for stopping by Summer!

  12. Incredible shot. Boxes are by far my girls favorite things. We have an appliance store walking distance and their favorite outing is to get a new box for fort making and drawing on. Your series is beautiful. xx
