Do you keep photos stored on your computer, photos that speak to you and are kept for no other reason? I do.
There is something stirred deep within when I see the above picture. I wish to be part of their world. Do I want to be the reader or the painter? My first thought is,"I am not good enough to be the painter." Ah, I, but want to be the painter.
I love this picture, too. I want to be that mother. I want my children to enjoy time outdoors with me. They appear to be in no hurry and seem to be enjoying a quiet moment together in a beautiful spot. No one seems to be arguing or wanting to rush off to the next thing.
Here I am again, the mom. This time my well-behaved, happy children and I are enjoying a tea party outdoors. See the boat in the background? It's the one we use to get to this private picnic spot. Perhaps, I need to jump on this idea. My real children are growing up so quickly. They won't want to have a tea party outdoors for long.
Thanks for stopping by and reading this silly little post! Perhaps it will inspire you to slow down, look at a picture and dream?
