Pre-kids it once took me and hour in a Longs drug store to buy a pen. Can you believe the guy shopping with me married me? I've tried to reform, but it's hard. Your first photo reminded me of the first (and only) time I turned my attention to the baby and left the toddler alone with crayons. Oops. To his credit he decided that blue didn't taste as good as it looked so he didn't seem to swallow the giant bite he took. Your second photo reminds me of a "mom" tattoo. Ya know, the kind a loving son would get. Hee hee! ;-) I don’t allow myself to wander the stationery aisle like I used to. Pre-kids it once took me and hour in a Longs drug store to buy a pen.

We are kin at heart. My daddy <i>wishes</i> he had been in sales for an office supplies company because his little girl was <i>always</i> in need of more paper and more crayons or pens and markers and pencils. And if you pull out the drawers and open the cabinets and peek into the boxes under the beds around this house? You'll see I'm still the same way. And I passed that along to the daughter, too. Your beautiful children are learning the tools of life in their creations! What a lovely celebration! Oh dear lady… We are kin at heart.

My husband and I own a children's art studio and teach the fundamentals of drawing & painting and also allow the kids to be creative and being expressive. A great place for supplies is Dick Blick. You can order on-line and they have great prices and a great selection, we buy all our supplies from them, including paper, and my husbands art supplies. Great projects for kids at home too. There is nothing greater than seeing a child create and use their imagination. Me and my husband and both left handed...just like Kenny!!!!! You can see our studio at www.artworksstudio.org. On another note - found your blog through citizen of the month and I just loved the post Neil did about fried squirrel. My Dad was a golf professional, brought home clubs and golf balls!
