start it up

We are leaving for my family beach house in around 4 hours.... I always let my husband sleep in in-exchange for him taking over the night shift. This works perfectly for us because I am not up for the challenge at the end of the night and he is apparently possessed by a monster before 10 am.  So here I am thinking about  whats in store this weekend .

beginning


I dont know what it is about big hands helping little hands create something new. But I am really digging it lately. We seem to feed off of each others creative juices and flow through the process in separate but unifying ways. The hardest part is letting go. Letting go of the need to control the mess and the need to make suggestions as to how they could be doing better. Just let them watch you create and feel inspired by it enough to try it in there own way.

My oldest is 6 1/2 and very introspective. I am going to try and help him find his way through art and creative play. My littlest is 1 1/2 and very willing to do just about anything his big brother does. This blog will be about that and all the shenanigans in-between.
