Creativity

I've been surprised a few times this week at the different ways my boys are expressing their creativity. For example, finding letters in the beans while preparing them for canning.
Miller
A quilt square for a family whose home was totaled by flooding.
Tanner

Self-portraits on my camera.
Sawyer

Play dough chess pieces, where upon capture, said piece gets smashed.
Porter
Making structures out of playing cards.
Cooper

Making a really large bike out of tinker toys.

I think Cooper takes the cake for building this time. I love it when my boys find letters and numbers in unexpected places though, like Miller.

I'm (tootsie) rolling on the floor laughing at that last picture. It's HILARIOUS!
