I am spending a few days with my very special boys, my three grandsons! I have much to do, but I just love time spent with them. They are each so different and fun in their own unique ways. Calvin is too young to chit-chat, but we enjoyed "exercising" by kicking our hands and feet into the air.
I was exhausted after a bit of this, and Calvin seemed so as well. The really funny thing is that Calvin fell sound asleep while Micah and Caleb were screaming with delight in the bath. I was holding Calvin right by the tub, and his brothers' shrill screaming and laughter lulled Calvin right to sleep! It was unbelievable, and both Katie and I shook our heads in wonder. Calvin feels at home and relaxed with his brothers right by his side!
I will make art after I put them to bed, but will have to post on the weekend due to technical difficulties. God is so kind to bless us with grandchildren.
My thought on creativity for today: " Of this there can be no question, creative work requires a loyalty as complete as the loyalty of water to the force of gravity. A person trudging through the wilderness of creation who does not know this, who does not swallow this, is lost. He who does not crave that place eternity should stay at home. Such a person is perfectly worthy, and useful, and even beautiful, but is not an artist. - Mary Oliver, Blue Pastures
