Revelations

Thursday Revelations:

#1 ~ I am the designated photography for the WES grade ones... self-appointed, mind you. But there I am... at the park... as I have been at the zoo and at Field Day... Canon and zoom lense in hand... standing on the top of the play structure... shooting away. Not missing a moment.

#2 ~ I miss playing with the boys. Got some good two-on-one time with the boys (at the park) today. Don't do that enough. In the summer we're going to try to get there once a week.

#3 ~ I'm not in the mood to work today. (I'm blogging instead!)

#4 ~ I've found my scrapping style (this just hit me, seriously, 5 minutes ago). Simple is not me. I love my home and surroundings clean and white. But my art... totally different story. Greatest current inspirations... Ali, Mary Grace, Genevieve (whose blog triggered this "aha moment"), Jamie Waters and the Effer Girls. Journaling is not my strong suit... I speak with the items and photos I choose to put on a page and how I do it. Is it publishable? Probably not. Does it matter? No. Is the picture clear and perfect ? Unlikely. Is it an example of great design? Maybe, maybe not. Like other aspects of my life... my kids, myself, my home, my life... my art doesn't fit a mold. It is unique and original in every respect. Maybe not always stunning or a design masterpiece, but it's me. My art is a reflection of me... or at least I want it to be. I hereby give myself the license to PLAY! Granny would be proud.
And boy... am I excited to scrap tonight!
