The newest addition to the lovely décor of the already lovely yellow door house. Upon removal of the soccer ball from the mantle I went into a serious décor depression.There was no longer any fun or imaginativeness about the decorations in the shared spaces of our house. It was all pretty, formal and adult like. No one enjoys being an adult so obviously I schemed to once again have a childlike décor brighten up the adult like features of the house. So I dove into my collection of 3 year old play things to see how I could bring joy back into the house. I found crayons, markers, stickers, paint, sparkles and then I realized it had been staring at me the entire time. From the top of my dresser two wide eyes stared at me from the head of balckness. Penguin! Why had I not thought of this before. It was pure genius. So I dug through my closet till I found a bag of beanie babies that were getting sad on account of not being played with. I took them out and created a wonderful display using my cat attacked basket as a pedestal. When I was finished I grinned knowing I had succeed in bringing child like wonder back into the four walls of our house.
I too have a few beanie babies who are incredibly lonely because their owner cares not for them but for the fuzzy purring cats that also share the basement... perhaps a playdate is in order...
ReplyDeleteit is so nice to come up the stairs and encounter such childlike joy (:
