Wonderful Dreams

As I type this post, it's just before 6 a.m. and I'm listening to Hanna laugh in her sleep. Oh, to have wonderful dreams that make us laugh out loud. I wonder what she's dreaming of?

Body Art

If you were wondering where the face painting came from in the last photo, Hanna and I went to the farmer's market last Saturday. She greeted everyone in her princess dress, as princesses do! And a lovely lady painted her face.

Colouring and painting seems to be a theme in our house lately.  Brad noticed Hanna's doll had marker all over its legs.  "Hanna, we don't colour our babies," he offered her.

"Dad, it's not colouring. It's a TATTOO!"

Oh how I laughed inside. How do you convince a child not to colour on bodies when you (Brad) display artwork on your back?

She's so darn smart!

Awe of Art

There is no more wondrous an activity than to be an artist in awe of art.

We could call this 'finger painting' but somehow that doesn't quite capture it. Know what I mean?

Intentions

Oh, so much to catch up on at Hanna's Home... I'm feeling a little overwhelmed. First things first... it seems my practice of setting daily intentions is rubbing off on my child (well, sorta...)

Two days ago Hanna made this announcement, "Mama, I have no intention of listening to you today."

I'm curious... what would YOU say in response to my little princess?
