a little less impossible

My plan for the Imagine the Impossibilities challenge was to draw more.  I talked about it here.  I'd love to say I've been drawing everyday but I haven't.  I expected it would be slow going to make this a priority in my day and that has proven to be true.  My goal is to start drawing again just to enjoy it.  I used to love to draw and somewhere along the line it became something I only did for a gift or a project but I never pick up a pencil just for the sheer enjoyment of it.

I started drawing my little guy while he reclined on the couch sucking his thumb and relaxing but then he got interested and picked up a red colored pencil to "help Mama"

 He was so happy to color with me and I found the end result kind of wonderful.

I said I would count every little doodle so this "drawing" I did on the placement at Friendly's counts too right?


I'm linking up to show that I'm working to make my impossible possible.  Baby steps people, I'm getting there!

challenge!
