On sunny weekend, me, my husband and Maya went to Golden Gate Park for picnic. Coming out of our car, I found something staring at me on the ground. It was a gopher, not afraid of human at all! Just focused on his job pushing dirt out of his hole. Then we realized so many holes were around us. We must have been right on his huge castle. Having a castle in the middle of San Francisco? I'm so envious...
In our parking lot, Maya notice an orange flower growing out of a space between the boards of a wooden fence. She asked me " Where is the flower growing from?". Without questioning, I answered "From the garden next door.". She was still curious, but a little afraid to peek into the space. So I peeked into it instead. There was a very dark and narrow space between our fence and our neighbor's fence. It was somewhat mysterious. I felt like there is a magical world existing behind the fence that Grownups will never imagine... And the flower grows out of the world to indicate us to notice and see beyond what we see.
One day, I took care of my friend's babies for a while. One of the older girl found a younger baby and called him "Baby!". And she came up to him and kissed on his cheek.
Just several months ago, she was a small baby like him. But now she acts like a big girl!
I studied Traditional Animation, so I'm very picky about animation for kids.
But I loved it as much as my daughter, Maya, did!
They succeeded to keep the quality of the picture books and to make characters alive. After Maya watched it, she became Peter and pretended to eat imaginary carrots on our bed as an imaginary carrot field.I hope she will eat a REAL carrot like that, too!!!
This is my first post! I'm excited to share my little sketches with you.
The other day, I was at my daughter's preschool. The teacher was showing kids tiny sprouts growing in tiny paper cups. All the kids were very excited and amazed how fast the seeds they planted grew.
