But in doing this, it must be understood that values become condensed and enriched in miniature." Looks like Ava understand this, and I'm sure she's never read Bachelard. To bad we loose this sense with age. Your kids are so darn creative, I love it. It is a shame that age, wisdom, and money do nothing but complicate the creative act. Let's all create like children create...from the heart.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08254303792702619298noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8984824.post-1143213411997027922006-03-24T07:16:00.000-08:002006-03-24T07:16:00.000-08:00Thanks.

So I decided to have Ava hold it out in front of me and I'd photograph it -- she got a little miffed with me, however, because I wanted to get it just right. All the shots were turning out blurry. But these were the best. <BR/><BR/>Thanks, guys for your comments. And yes, Jan, that girl of ours is pretty headstrong when it comes to her art.Ward Jenkinshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05013085293679968596noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8984824.post-1143163717794358392006-03-23T17:28:00.000-08:002006-03-23T17:28:00.000-08:00as a kindergarten teacher, i must say that i adore...as a kindergarten teacher, i must say that i adore this tiny book and the way that you captured it in this series of photos. what a sweet memory. what a sweet portrayal.EllyJanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04326387001852333759noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8984824.post-1142886055201382062006-03-20T12:20:00.000-08:002006-03-20T12:20:00.000-08:00So darn weird.
