Contrast & Patterns
I had to work a couple of night shifts this week for a coworker who was sick. It always leaves me tired, but I was able to join the family today for a sunny trip to a very cool playground. There were some very interesting contrasts between colors and materials. Also some interesting patterns.
And then t wore a cone around for a while.

Art Therapy
Still feeling terrible. This cold is taking me a long time to kick. I went back to work today but felt like I was moving in slow motion. Maybe the fact that I got called in for an emergency appendectomy in the middle of the night didn’t help. I could use a good night of pure sleep.
Life goes on in the meantime though. The kids have been busy with some art projects. J started a snowman (until she came down with the same cold) and T finished it. E, age 14, finished a gift for a friend – Luna from HP complete with Gryffindor lion hat. And T did another drawing of me, himself, and J. Pretty good likenesses actually.

Advent
Home sick from church today, unfortunately. Sinus infection of some variety, flu-like. Feel pretty terrible.
That being said, happy first Sunday of Advent. I thought I would share these two kids-art pictures to mark the day.
A drawing by t, age 5, of the nativity, completely unprompted. I guess he’s taken in a lot from years past. And a rock arrangement by j, age 10, of the same. She’s always making cool stuff out of ordinary objects.

Iroquois Park, Again
Back for another hike at Iroquois, with two of the three kids in tow. A beautiful Fall afternoon. We were there a little earlier and the light was a little brighter. I tried to get a little closer to the leaves this time around.
