I’m curious to hear what lovely thing(s) you put into use this week!
Did you have a hard time thinking of something?Or justifying getting it out and using it?
Can’t wait to read your comments and visit your blog posts!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~It has been ages since I’ve had a tablecloth on our dining table.Since we only have one table in our house, it gets a lot of use….every meal, crafts and coloring, school work, snacks.I decided to iron my favorite cloth and put it on anyway!Having a cloth on our table made me want to have a tea party!I feel badly, but I rarely think of doing tea parties with the boys, and they really enjoy them.
So, we got out some nice dishes, real tea cups, and special cookies.
My sister recently brought over a couple wonderful illustrated poetry books for us to enjoy.I decided that I would make the best of my captive audienceand share a few poems by William Blake.The boys have been doing their fair share of coloring and writing lately,so I added paper to some clipboards for a nice coloring surface.The colored pencils were all sharpened and ready to go.
I think I would like to start making tea time a part of our routine (at least weekly),
having the boys color while I read poetry.

Our challenge for next week:
Make a Lovely List.
I shared a project some time ago, painting my ‘happy’ list on a large canvas.
I want to challenge you to think of things that represent lovely to you.
Post this list in a visible place where it can be a source of daily inspiration.
Write it out on a chalkboard.Paint it on a wall.Print and frame it.Use your imagination!!I would REALLY like to see some pictures this next week.Come on, you can do it!
