Time to get creative...

In an attempt to bring a bit of sparkle back into Lauren's eyes following her episode of sickness over the week-end I suggested getting out her painting easel, (desperate times call for desperate measures). The pleasure displayed on her face accompanied by the jumping up and down on one spot said it all!!

So, out came the easel, paint pots, brushes, paint and overalls and the chance to let the creative juices flow. Amy had a go at finger painting and general "rub your hand over the page" type painting and even managed to paint her lips and ear!!

The activity definitely had the desired effect and I now have another lovely masterpiece, complete with sun, sky and grass to display on my kitchen cupboards. What more could a mummy ask for?
And now for Auntie Jenni, as promised, some pictures of the said event. Enjoy!
