Delightful

Posted on | April 10, 2006 |

The theme at Mama Says Om this week is delight. Such perfect timing for today, when the weather is pure sun, the air mild and warm, and our feet bare. Bean helped me add some color to this little list of springtime goodness. He sat on the table, bare legged and chubby thighed, and pressed his fingers into round coins of water color pigment and then swirled them onto my page. He had his own page of course, but mine was more fun, so we made it a project with as many brushes and water and glue as possible. Pure delight.
