Our Family Comic Book: Part One

I can't remember how it all started, but one evening my daughter and I were drawing cartoons about our family. We drew quite a few of them, all highlighting some of the quirks we have both individually and as a family. I decided to post a few of these on my blog every so often, and here is the first installment... please disregard the lack of artistical talent. I'm not going to tell you which toons my 7 year old drew and which ones were my doing, because frankly there isn't much difference.

My Youth is Bent

From my Photo Blog.

"The force that through the green fuse drives the flower
Drives my green age; that blasts the roots of trees
Is my destroyer.
And I am dumb to tell the crooked rose
My youth is bent by the same wintry fever."
- Dylan Thomas

Maya's Art

Time once again for Haiku Friday!

The mind of a child
Through creative expression
An amazing thing

As a parent, it can't get much more inspiring than this!
