Feeling a little parched from the lack of scrapping, I have decided to follow a few sketches to regain some of my MOJO. As usual, I headed off to the Bearybox sketch to try it out.
Her is my simple take of the sketch. Jessy took the photos of Sean way back in 2007 and I have scrapped these photos. As an Asian parent, I always try to resist getting "sucked up" by parents who only expect good grades from their kids and neglect the element of PLAY. I want to make sure that I remember that a lot of good does come out of play and I should not be basing my kids' successes by the number of As they score. After all - my only goal is to have happy kids and not really smart ones but who is unable to adapt to social settings and worse still - have no manners...
The journalling goes:
Always remember to play. When was the last time you had an enjoyable game? If you quite playing because it is a child's spot, then you are wrong. As Bernard Shaw said:, "We do not stop playing because we grow old; we grow old because we stop playing."
I have copied this quote from the internet and its so apt.
Materials used:
{Scarlet Lime kit - GCD pp, SEI pp, Chipboards at the corner - lost the names - my apologies, the journal sticker and the swirl at the bottom}, Making Memories Boy Chipboard Tag, K n Co, Situation spinner, Sassafras lass cloud stickers, Bazzill cs, Zig pen for journalling and 3D pop up dots.
