Stepping Stones



Now that the bok choy is sprouting we need a way for the kids to access the middle of the plot without stepping on the plants so Angela picked up some recycled bricks to use as stepping stones. Rather than to just throw them in (which is the lazy man option I would have opted for) Angela decided it would be fun to paint them up. She picked up four bricks - one for each member of the family to decorate however they wanted. Theo's brick is an assemblage of colours mashed together to form brown representing earth. Milo chose to brand his through his signature tiger stripes while Angela painted a scene of pastel flowers, a symbol for happy times. As for myself, I opted for a soothing purple for my background to which Milo quickly snagged and added the letter H for 'home'. Leave it to the number one son to put emphasis on what's most important. Way to go kid!
