things that my mum kept

i watched my mum go through old paintings and drawing and merit cards the other day. She had a bag full of pictures and work my brother and i had done as kids. it was a stange thing. i went through some of the painitings and could rememer doing them, and they didn't look any different to me than when i had done them. i still saw what i had as a kid. but i could also see that mostly they were just scribble, and smudges of paint.

mum looked mostly at the things my brother had done.
he was always a good drawer, you could tell from his work as a little kid he was good at art
she had kept all the certificates we had received . Merit certificates
for being quiet and well behaved
for having interesting experiences
for sitting still
for being kind to small creatures
for remembering lots of words in italian
for playing well with others.

Mum showed me a book that my brother had written in kindy. it was only 4 pages long. instead of words he had written the first letter of each word he'd wanted to write and the teacher had written the words out underneath.
the illustrations were so good for such a little kid
the last page was covered with stickers which were placed with care around the illistrations. underneath the teacher had written
i can't beleive it, fantastic, even better than before!!!
