I can end up feeling creatively foggy during this process. There isn't time or energy left at the end of the day for my artwork. Work begets work apparently and I only have new ideas when I am also actively creating. You can see where I go from here..."I will never have a good idea EVER again! Waaaaah!"
(Driving on a Friday Evening by my daughter, Ema)
I checked out my daughter's new blog the other day. Have I foolishly been stumbling over my own magnum opus? The raising of children is such a large creative endeavor that its hard to see the beginning and the end all at once.
Nothing changed - except my attitude. But that's made all the difference.

To everything there is a season. I'm looking forward to getting into the studio again soon with the energy of the accomplishments of our school year at my back and a long summer ahead.

To be honest, I don't know how you do it. Don't laugh, I am literally full of awe at your acomplishment, because from September to June I push my two out the door for almost 8 hours and seem to have incredible difficulty with the smallest tasks. Have a joyously focused summer and keep in touch...the focus is on you now!
