Inspirations here, inspirations there, inpirations everywhere

I mean, really, they are EVERYWHERE. And, actually, if you talk to children (of coz, at the age when they know how to talk) you really can get a zillion of inspiration from them. Not only by talking to them, many more, look at them play with their toys, look at them talk to their friends, look at them pick up flowers or leaves from the ground (for no reason) and they brought it home as a 'present' for you!!

And even though they make me angry, tired, frustrated...60% of the time,
they are ...what they are... coz a child is a 'gift' from God.
Just wanna share my thoughts and the very moment (captured in my mind) that i will remember for the rest of my 'motherhood' life....

Diyanah playing with her shadows.....




that's me and Diyanah.....


a picture she drew of me and her......


a flower she brought home for me when she came back from school...

 
Diyanah playing with her 'friends'.....


just look at how she 'entice' other children (whom she never met before) to listen to her talking about...i dunno what???....(even their 'maid' is listening!)
I love you Diyanah, you are what you are, you are a 'special' child (to mak and abah), you are unique, creative, active and very imaginative!!
You INSPIRED me in many ways and i Thank God for his unique 'gift'.....amin.....
Here's a painting i did in a bigger journal, INSPIRED by a book that Diyanah borrowed from the library, entitled WILLOW. Its a story about creativity, and the magical things that can happen when imagination is allowed to run wild.....(Diyanah borrowed this book and show it to me!! and i love it too! hee...) Thank you Diyanah, you really know your mommy's interest! (lol..)


this is the book....(illustrated by Cyd Moore)


and here's my painting.....

On that note, i hope you get some INSPIRATIONS and got inspired! Just wanna share what i read behind the cover of WILLOW....
"Every child is an artist. The problem is how to remain an artist once grown up" - Pablo Picasso
Hope you have a blessed and creative day! ;-)

  2. July, I love this post and it makes me want to check out that book 'Willow'! I'm thinking that Diyanah is just as 'lucky' to have you as a mom as you are to have her as your 'baby'! I (55jaro55) just recently found you on YouTube and am planning to watch some more of your videos tonight! So glad I found you!
