I have done this for years and years. Looking back thru the journals, I can re-live the moment those few pen scratches were set on paper. And that is all that matters.<br /><br />A nice neat, perfect sketchbook is fine for some, not for me. <br /><br />I saved a large box of drawings my now middle-aged children made when they were younger than Sophia. I would tape sheets of newsprint to the coffee table and let them draw every day. Later I discovered they had also drawn on the underside of the table.Joanne Shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01623855664379207620noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16634800.post-84222609529905442302012-03-06T05:14:35.722-08:002012-03-06T05:14:35.722-08:00Not too surprising at your granddaughter's tal...Not too surprising at your granddaughter's talent with artistic genes coming from her father and you!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16634800.post-2582646239615194492012-03-06T02:29:22.952-08:002012-03-06T02:29:22.952-08:00You are not alone!

I have sketchbooks with me always and they are a total mess! Here and there I manage a decent drawing but like you I use them mostly to rough out an idea. <br /> Your granddaughter is amazing! To draw that at age 5!!!!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02166011380454448476noreply@blogger.com
