payton and nana time
would you like to try painting
I asked my precious granddaughter
oh yes nana.. she replied
we brought out the paints
the shells she collected so carefully everyday
at our lake ‘beach house’
I showed her
how to clean her brush
after each colour
she was a fast learner
and we painted our hearts out
we discussed our favorite colours
our favorite shells
and talked about life
as she learned the most
important lesson
in painting
is
how you hold your tongue
