Yes, Grandma loves the dresses drawn for her by her beautiful and talented granddaughter. They've captured my heart, my spirit, and my soul in each piece. The value is beyond measure. I hope to one day bring them to life. However, when it comes to the prelude: writing and painting on walls and writing in Grandma's workbooks I sure hope it will all be one day a part of a bigger story too great to imagine.
Today is a Saturday and I'm sitting at home. I just finished listening to a book on audio the other week. I thought maybe today is a good day to sit around and take an in depth look at the workbook and fill out some of the pages. Well lo and behold I start looking at my workbook. Then I decided to flip through the pages to preview what was in it.
I flip mid way through the book and discover some little darling has taken the liberty to fill out part of the work book for me. There is pages and pages of scribble. The culprit left their signature mark on a page. I
would recognize the name and signature mark with the last "a" in the name written incorporating a little cute heart shape instead of the regular round "a" shape for the letter. The child had filled out the whole page. Now be mindful this is a left brain child who doesn't even like to do "her" homework. Bless her heart she took the liberty to do something for me.
I am admittedly selfish about a lot of things. One of the things I am most selfish about is my books and magazines. I don't like touching them after someone else has touched them. I can love you to pieces but I don't even like anyone touching my books. Its one of those quirks I do have.
But the act left some intrigue. I am curious to know how did she know to write a line on the Subtotal line in each row under each column?
Now that she has my Monday Expense Diary covered I guess I'm good. I find it ironic the chapter of the workbook is called "LIONS, TIGERS, AND BEARS" in the Living Life Without Limits: Reposition Yourself Workbook by T.D. Jakes. Her mother used to watch the Lion King DVD over and over and over all day on Saturdays to the point where I would plead with her to watch something else. And she would just smile and say "no" I want to watch it again.
I wish I still had a photo from when this same child painted a light blue wide streak on my white wall in the living room. I have since gone to a different neutral tone. It got over 45K hits online. I hope one day I come across it again somewhere. That day she didn't even get a drop of paint on herself and originally denied doing it. Then to see that she is now signing her work, its just classic.
Some works and works of art don't even need a signature. We can just look at it and tell who did it. My granddaughter definitely has a gift and talent beyond measure and I hope one day she is discovered and live the abundant life her talents dictate. But up and until that day someone is going to have to find a way to channel that creative energy in a positive way. I can see her being one of those people who paints whole walls full of drawings that will just captivate the human eye. But if it is a wall you not supposed to be painting, heaven forbid, please don't sign it.
