Working with My Saw


Today I got to paint the pumpkin I made on Tuesday. For the first time in eight or nine years I am using my saw again. I was kind of afraid because it had been so long, but it was like riding a bike. I love working with wood and painting and drilling holes and getting just dirty playing with power tools. The one thing that was hard was the last time I used my saw all of my children were children. I would spend so much time cutting out things they drew on pieces of wood so they could paint what ever it was they were making. We would spend hours painting, sanding and making big messes in the garage. Now they are all grown. I was outside by myself, but my mind kept going to when my grandchildren are a bit bigger, I can take them outside and they can draw on pieces of wood, and Ga maw will cut out what ever they see in their minds. Then they can sand and paint. How blessed I am. Enjoy your Friday!

That came out so cute! It's so simple, too. I just love the really simple pieces.

And yes, the grandkids will adore working with wood. :-)
