A picture is worth 1000 words!


This picture was drawn by my son, Riley.  He was only 4 years old at the time. 
I was remarried about a year and a half ago and I thought it would be special if I had my one and only little boy walk me down the aisle.  He was a little shy during the event but he did it!
A month later his preschool teacher asked the students to draw a picture of what they do with their Moms to have fun.  She then went around and asked them to describe what was in the drawing and wrote it down for them.  I noticed it posted on the bulletin board the next day.
Although he never said anything about it, I was really touched to know that walking me down the aisle meant as much to him as it did to me!

LESSON:  Kids may not always be able to express their emotions with words...look to their artwork for their true feelings!

  1. Hi Sarah, your son's picture is beautiful. A child's drawing can really showcase a story. Your page is really nice as well.

    What a beautiful picture! I have all the art work my son and daughter created when they attended school. I treasure those memories.
