My kids love being outside. They love hiking and biking and picking berries and exploring.
Ian drew a picture from a memory of a hike to Multnomah Falls a while ago. That picture is very important to him. I think it must be associated with some special memories, because it always makes him smile a certain way when he talks about it.
This is the picture he drew:
When I asked him what he wanted on his walls, this is what he gave me. I told him I wasn't sure I could do it. He said he didn't want anything else if he couldn't have that.
Well, it's not identical, but it's the best I could do:
The blue is the original color- that worked out so nicely! He didn't want the tree trunks filled in, because he drew them so well with the markings- and I had no other dark brown to re-create it. He said he doesn't like it. He said he REALLY likes it. :)
Happy kids make for a happy mama.
