I am participating in the March Slice of Life Challenge: A slice a day for all of March. You should do it too! Thank you, Two Writing Teachers! Readers, check out their site, and start slicing! I’m also celebrating with Ruth Ayres today!
I sit to write at a sunny window. It’s quiet-ish around here, and I look around. From my chair, I see some lovely Sunday celebrations. I see…
H sitting next to me, his mini paper towels are complete, and he’s working on his mini Harry Potter Book. He sits chatting and singing Into the Woods songs, making miniatures.
Finn, somehow still downstairs, not staring at the the bedroom door trying to sniff out the kittens. He sees something outside and leaps to our rescue. I don’t know what it was. A bird? A neighbor? A leaf? We will never know.
E, drawing monsters in the kitchen. He has pages and pages of creative monsters he’s drawn. They have strengths, weights, evolutions, and awesome names. So many details, so much color.
Things don’t stay the way they are for long. That’s the only thing that’s constant around here: Change.
E was frustrated with his pictures, he’s taking a break from his coloring. H is done with this miniature book, he’s searching for his next project. Finn is finally tired out enough to rest on his couch in the sun. (As he should be, since I took him out for a 2 hour walk…) And that, friends, is something to truly celebrate.
Sounds like a perfect Sunday! The photos really enhanced the piece, especially the miniatures! Way to go on your two hour walk.
Sounds like a nice way to spend a Sunday. I bet there are lots of great monster pictures that were created today.
This is the perfect example of a slice of life! And a happy one at that. AND it speaks such truth – “Things don’t stay the way they are for long. That’s the only thing that’s constant around here: Change.” THAT is exactly right!
I love your simple celebrations, seeking them and appreciating what they are is very special. It is a perfect Sunday afternoon!
Such a lovely Sunday in a home teeming with activity from a busy family. Something magical happens when we stop and truly take it all in like you did.
What fun celebrations! I love those miniatures. Also, you have to love how our dogs are always ready to protect us from whatever might be threatening! Glad for you that he finally settled in for a nap in the sun.
Love this celebration with snaps of everyone’s activity, but what about the new kittens? What were they up to? Or am I mixing you up with someone else? I really thought that Finn was the dog with two new kittens in his house.
Lol. Yes! New kittens were up in my room resting. Somehow Finn was tired enough to ignore that room for a bit. He’s up to his kitten door guarding now though!
