Anybody Home: My Story Rocks

Sunday, September 21, 2014

Tonight, after a lovely relaxing weekend, I made some story rocks.

I believe I first saw this on Pinterest. But last week I saw some at the artisans market.

The ones I saw there were lovely. Little works of art, brightly painted.

So I bought a bag of rocks at Michael's. They were 60% off. I already had the pen.

Tomorrow I shall try them out. Time will tell if anyone other than myself is interested in these.

I must have been 4 but still reprimanded him: oetoe, Opa, mag niet Shaddy slaon. meaning Oh mind you, Gramps, should not beat Shaddy. That is about all, what I would have loved a Granny telling me familystories - and others too - with selfscrabbled pictures on stones. Like: and then baby Broer was born and picking up the stone that meant Broer. I hope your grandchildren will tell you many stories and ask for more pebbles. DM; 1:16 PM
