Navigating the hilly terrain of motherhood

A couple of weeks ago, Grace suddenly started drawing flowers. Beautiful, colorful, unique flowers that I loved so much I immediately framed two of her drawings. Up until then, she had been drawing mostly people and houses, with the occasional animal thrown in for good measure. Most of her art was messy and busy, and often unrecognizable. But these flowers — they were really amazing. Sadly, the flower phase only lasted two days, and now she's back to drawing people, crazy rainbows, and kangaroos. It's okay, though, I know that eventually she'll be able to sit still long enough to draw whole fields full of flowers, and in the meantime, it's fun to watch the little artist in her emerge. Besides, I really like kangaroos.
