Artwork

Even when I think I could not find any more of Imogen's amazing drawings and letter ramblings (she never got to the stage of understanding how to put words together), I do.

Today it has been 15 months without her here...which is just unbelievable. There is many times lately I have wondered whether her existence was just a wonderful dream. An enchanting dream of a beautiful smiley girl, who constantly stole your heart and made it sing.

Today I cleaned through the draw of scrap paper as Ashton has started to investigate the world of drawing and stickering. Amongst these papers laid more of Imogen's artwork, a drawing of me and her. I know this as there along the top was written our names - Imogen Mum, a stick picture of us surrounded by kiss crosses. I then ploughed through the scrap paper drawer and found more, needless to say the tears were running by then. This gift from her is a double edged sword, beautiful drawings and random words, make you think of what she would be able to do by now.

I have added the drawings and random words to the pile. I want to find a way to store them that would preserve them, any suggestions? There is a lot, I can't bear to part with one piece of paper, regardless of how it is cut, stickered or drawn on...

Let me know if you can think of a way to organise these priceless gifts.

Love Luckiest Mum to four beautiful kids xxxxx
