Childish Illustrations

Today is Palm Sunday and we were supposed to have a staff meeting in the morning but was postponed. No, not because it is Palm Sunday and the start of Holy Week but the male therapists refused to go because of a boxing match between The Philippines and Mexico. Because it is going to be the start of Holy Week, not a lot of my students came last Saturday and only a handful came. I passed my spare time doing some childish-looking illustrations when I saw some used and broken oil pastels among my things. I was not able to blog hop when the internet connection went kaput. Yeah, welcome to the third world.

Anyway, here are some of my childish illustrations (which I am not sure how the water lily pads look like) and now I am wondering where I got the guts to put these for people to see in the www. Let me show these before I being to change my mind and think further that I have somehow lost my mind :) I just want to have a little bit of fun before I start reflecting about God’s goodness this Holy Week.

I hope we all get to reflect on the goodness and greatness of God this Holy Week. Be well, everyone.

I was supposed to feature Palm Sunday but I wasn’t sure we would be able to attend the Palm Sunday Mass because my daughter Tania has fever so I did this post this morning. Finally we were able to attend the mass at 6pm. Please visit another WS entry here if you have time. Thank you.

Rachel, craypas are better than crayons, though its a little messy on the hands. Tania got well Monday, thanks :)
