Creativity

4/26/11 Tuesday
We finished Jewel's dragon balsa wood, derby car.
Uncle Don carved it out according to Jewel's ideas, I spray painted it green and embellished it with gold marker, and Raven glued red beads for the dragon's eyes.
It is a thing of beauty!  I hope Makena takes a photo so that you may see this wonderful dragon car!
In past years Jewel has chosen her car to be a cat, a dog, then a seal, and now a dragon!
She loves arts and crafts, going to Art galleries where she loves the wood sculptures best.
She loves pop music because of her sisters.
I used to play classical violin music every morning for the girls when they all still played the violin.
Makena and Raven used to play in the Maui Youth Symphony and Jewel would get a lesson with them every monday morning.  We would put her in her stander and she had her own violin and the teacher would teach her and we would assist.  We must always remember to feed the mind and nurture the soul.  She misses her lesson "a little bit".  It was a sad day in my heart when the older girls chose to stop playing the violin.  They are all still creative and express it in different ways, on to different seasons.  I am learning to let go, a little bit at a time.
