whimsical wednesday

this whimsical wednesday we are preparing for father's day!  plan a surprise, bake cookies, make and send a card, whatever the dad in your life would enjoy.

this will be the first father's day observed without my father actually present as he died in january.  recently my sister gave me a bag of items that belonged to dad. among them are several of the multitude of his yearly pocket calendars; which are filled with daily entries about what happened each day.  on father's day, weather permitting, i will sit on the porch with a cup of tea and read what dad's pocket calendars have to offer.  and, if inspired, will create something about dad in my art journal.

  1. She gave Michael the one from the year he was born and we got a good laugh out of the activity he listed on his birth day - "Turned in time card." :)
