novel writing, micro-farming, unschooling, alternative building…it's all in a day's play

okay, you’re probably getting sick of these by now…

Take away message:

Play is an awesome creative power when you just get out of the way of the fun.

Okay. Now, let me introduce the most recent addition to our flower fairy family….

(And because I can’t help myself, here is one more, a fairy our cousin Tracie made. I love the apron.)

But here’s the next leveling-up of the game: Sophie is now into setting up little felt picture backdrops, staging tiny scenes as it were, and taking photos of them….

This is a little nighttime walk the fairies were taking. Photo, story, backdrop, and fairy-voices, all by Sophie.

Where will it end? I’m thinking full-on Shakespearean dramas told in flower-fairy-felt-photo-format.

Huzzah!

    You do realize, of course, that your minds have been possessed by the actual fairies that inhabit your home and yard. They are manifesting themselves via pipecleaners, felt, petals, and your hands.

    And all night while you sleep, they frolic happily but quietly on pipecleaner toes. :)

    I caught up on my blog reading. Good offerings. I loved Sophie on the horse. She is amazing.
