I just love handmade cards. I put pressure on myself to make them and if for some reason I don't get time and buy one, I feel guilty. It is a bit crazy and I should give myself a break. Moving right along...
I gave my Mum a card for Mother's Day, handmade, featuring some of Bean's artwork. Just a sweet little splash of blue and green watercolour. Mum adores it. Then she astounded me by digging out a painting that I did when I was about the same age. I am in awe! It made me feel so connected, all of us, so part of something big - life. And something small - us. Life giving life...giving life. To think that I am to Mum, what Bean is to me. And I am a grown woman. And Bean will be too one day. It just blows my mind. Lovely.
Are you feeling in awe of the simple things? I'd love to hear about them.
