joy and delight and whimsy

 

Anna and I both read this book during Lent this past year, 

and we loved this invitation at the end of one of the chapters: 

"We were made for joy and delight and whimsy. But there is a discipline to this kind of joy, especially when we're not feeling especially cheery. Kate has been known to go to a thrift store, pick out an old painting, take it home, and paint a monster in the background. Or a dinosaur, if she's feeling extra spicy...." Good Enough, page 14 

So, when Anna went to the Goodwill bins with a friend recently, she found this framed picture of Mount Rainier for $2 and we got started on our additions to it. 

 thank God for Ed Emberley's drawing books that enabled us to do these amazing drawings
