Art time!


I wondered if the time would ever come when Justin enjoyed art projects, coloring, painting, cutting, molding Play-doh and the like! He would only scribble on a page for 10 seconds and be done. Many start that stuff earlier and I just thought maybe it wasn't his thing.
Well, my dreams weren't dashed in pieces because around the magical age of 4 he began.

GMa and GPa Morris were right on cue with the build it your self airplane!
The Tongue of Concentration! It's hereditary.



Justin now loves to make things and I love to see what he makes too. My fridge is still adorned with his first coloring project that he colored carefully and his pieced together paper funky star fish motif. I 'm loving this! It's the small stuff, right!?:0)

I love these pictures of Justin! I think that I am going to steal one of them. It's nice to know that he likes doing that stuff now. I will make sure and keep stuff on hand for when he comes over!

It is so fun when they achieve anothe milestone- it doesn't matter how old they are! I love looking at art work from kids- you can usually tell what kind of mood they were in with them- color cjhoice, how much is actually colored, and so on!

I love it when they start to get really creative. My oldest still struggles, but my youngest is just getting into it and I love it!

Matthew sticks out his tongue when he is concentrating too! How funny! I am glad to see that he isn't the only one :)

When he spent the night he colored a picture for my friend who is on a mission!! It was of a rainbow and a "silly head" who was wearing a tie. SO CUTE!
