Creativity Runs in the Family



My son can make amazing things out of paper and tape--or cardboard and duct tape as the case may be. Once he made a sailing ship, complete with sails and rigging, out of notebook paper and scotch tape. He doesn't draw out a pattern or anything. He just starts cutting and taping, and amazing things come out. This .45 even has a holster with a belt loop. Out of cardboard and duct tape. Red Green would be proud.

I haven't drawn anything today. Mr Pennington has a cold, and I think I'm having sympathy aches. I worked a bit on the jigsaw puzzle Denise L gave me for Christmas, knitted a bit on my scrap afghan, read a bit on Cody's library book, and watched some TV. I think I'll go lay down for a while.
