A child's artwork brought to life...

  My very good friend, Carolyn, told me about Child's Own Studio some time ago.  They take a child's drawing and turn it into a "softie".  There are many people or companies that do this, but I love them the most for one very important reason.  They do not alter the artwork to make the softie "cuter" or "prettier".  They make it as is, which I think is amazing.  It shows the imagination that children have, and how what they create is as impressive as the images their counterparts (or adults) could ever come up with.












Have a gander at some of their creations:

The Friday Five...



Seeing the first signs of Spring...after a season that can be called anything but Winter...



 
Realizing that being surrounded by organized chaos is somewhat comforting...




Reading a book that inspires me to try something new...





Liking being dirty...




Not caring that I will have to wash the window....again...

My happiness for the day...

Jason took this video of Isabella when I was working one day (almost three years ago).  I watched it last night...the first time in a long time.  I will never tire of it.  She still has that same laugh.  

And yes....this is the same child that chopped off all of her hair about a month ago. 
This video could have helped me out that day : )



If only, we could all find such joy in the tiniest of things. 

Hope you all have a great day!
