One Photo and Twenty-One Words: Art Journal Page

Thinking about whether I successfully guide my girl, 
wondering if what I say sinks in,
I work it out through art.

  4. I'm a firm believer that you may not know the impact of your guidance until much later, but I'm sure it's sinking in. I love this page, and would like to know more about how you created it.

    I'm with Karen - you just never know when in the future something you've said might suddenly make a whole lot of sense

  10. Beautiful page ... and as one whose daughter is through and out the other side into fully fledged adulthood, I am amazed how much of my homespun wisdom shared with her in teenage years is reflected back to me now :).

  17. Oh, I recognise that feeling... I ask myself the same questions all the time.
    I am sure that your great example and hard work will inspire your lovely girl and she will make the right decisions on the whole. We can't live our children's lives for them - we just have to do our best as parents, try to recognise when to let them try for themselves and trust them to follow our example.

    Beautiful journal page, Rinda!
