For the Birds

The boys and I took a trip to the craft store today to pick out different activities for them to do this summer. One of the things I knew they would love is painting bird houses. They picked out their own bird house, we bought paint and brushes and we were ready. Here’s how it went…… DSC_4066 DSC_4067

We got everything set up outside and we were off.

Now, many of you know my boys well. Their personalities are VERY different!!!! The pictures below are perfect examples of how these two are different.

Carson likes to GO BIG!!! The bigger the brush the better. The more paint I can get on that big brush the better!!! He mixes colors and there is no rhyme or reason to what he does!! That’s Carson.

Asher, well look at him!!!!! He is precise. Very particular. He picked one of the smallest brushes so he could paint with detail!! That’s Asher!!!

Even though they are very different, they both painted beautiful houses for our neighborhood birds!!!

Carson’s 4!

 

He’s four!!!  I can’t believe he’s four!  We are so blessed with this little boy.  There are struggles and attitudes at times, but at the heart of Carson is love.  He loves to snuggle and kiss and hug. Thanks to all our family and friends who love and pray for him. 

So, for his 4th birthday we took him to CHAP!!  Children's Healing Art Project.  It’s a small warehouse where kids can paint, glue, glitter, and paste on ANYTHING they want.  Even themselves!!!!  They have complete freedom to be creative. 

Carson had a great time and we can’t wait to come back with other friends.
