Yesteryear
I don't ever remember a longing to go to camp when I was young, both my parents were teacher and one was always available from what I remember. Now in my parenting years I have been getting mail since Christmas about summer camp. CHRISTMAS!!! In December these camps want me to shell out $5,000 dollars for something that I will not start thinking about until June. Well not June anymore for fear of being closed out, these mega camps scare you into thinking they are filling up now. How in the heck can folks afford 5 grand for a ten week session of camp. I have talked to other parents who really have no choice and must have some sort of child care for their kid because they work full time. They are upset as well by these moneysucking camps. I am lucky camp can be an option for our family on the account that I stay home. But my son does not want to be left out of the fun. Oh the pressure a 5 year old can apply with out even trying. GUILT!!! a little goes a long way. I was told the other morning to get a uniform like Daddy and go to work by my son so he could stay an extended time at school and play with the other children. There are other camps out there that are not soooo expensive, but they don't get to you at Christmas time and make you feel like it's now or never. They get to you at a reasonable time ...spring, and cost half as much. What's up with the cruelly expensive camps?

Time Flies
{These clocks can be found here.}
This morning in our daylight savings time grogginess I was gifted a moment to soak in what is speeding by. I woke up to a little nugget snuggled under my arm, actually I wish, she was more like sprawled out on her back with both arms stretched wide, forcing me to shrink into a four inch gap between her and Thomas. But it was bliss the sun was coming through the window and I could not stop thinking that these moments are going to end soon as I heard my son grumbling trying to untangle himself from his sheets in the next room. We were soooo late and I did not care instead I chose to take a moment and spend time in the tiny silence that seemed like another world. I shrunk out of the bed not to disturb sleeping beauty and her prince, got dressed and went into my son's room who had given up escaping from his bed and drifted back to sleep. The sun was begging to be let in so I opened the shades and woke up Tyler who bound out of bed like sleep was not his last state. Peace was over and the wind storm of getting out the door began, but I was happy for the quiet moment I was given this morning.
Today another piece of art found a home, hopefully, it is going up for auction here. A visit to the grocery store is needed and I am hoping it does not rain on me.

Wow
The response to this piece has being amazing. Some people want it for their child as well as for their own personal enjoyment. If you also enjoy this piece and want to purchase it as a gift for a friend, child, niece, nephew, or personal entertainment, I would be more than happy to create and personalize this piece just for you. I truly believe that it is important for us to let every child know that he or she is bright enough to make a tremendous change in the world.
"Creativity is power!"
