  3. wow...this was amazing to watch!!! I was absolutely mesmerized...probably b/c I have zero artistic talent when it comes to drawing/sketching/painting, etc.

    But you know who does...Mary Catherine. I'm amazed at her drawings...and she showed me how she sees "shapes" in everything she looks at. I never have...but after my 7 year old pointed this out to me...I started to see shapes and became better able to "sketch"...I'm being generous in using that term with myself!

    Anyway, what I loved about this was that Mary Catherine and I are working on her bedroom redo...and TODAY she asked...Mama...could I paint the Eiffel Tower on my bedroom wall? I was going to hire someone...but what if instead of saying no...I said YES?!!! What if I treated and nurtured the artist inside her, just as you nurture the artist inside of you?!!

    Wouldn't that yes be a beautiful memory that she had forever?!!! Not "how well" her Eiffel Tower turned out...but that her Mama said YES...

    Thank you, Anne Marie. You inspire me as always.

  12. Okay, I know I already posted once about this. But I just watched the video again to start my day off just right, and I just have to say, coming to your Barn Sale is on my bucket list of things to do. I think next year, I will plan my vacation around your sale, and I will bring my sister-in-law with me and we will come from Virginia to see you. Mark my word, I will be there:)
