CRAYON DRAWINGS

 

 

Crayon drawings of children

are taped

    to the refrigerator

 

in attempts

          at invoking

                sentiments

        of family values

The way family theatre was

The way family theatre was done before facebook. Perhaps, sometimes, still? A cynical, yet undoubedly true assessment of some home displays. I've tutored in quite a few homes over my lifetime. I've seen it, and can't argue with ya.

 

In my childhood home, we didn't have such things on the fridge, that I ever recall. And though my parents were not into theatre, there may have been other reasons. I always loved to play with those little magnetic fruit on the fridge, when I was young. My mom and dad kept all of our 'special drawings' in photo albums, with report cards and certificates of achievement and all that jazz. Maybe a few would have made it to the fridge if I didn't love those darn fruit so much. :p

my drawings never got tacked

my drawings never got tacked to the fridge.  Usually I just got a "that's nice" and they placed the drawing on the table.  thanks for reading and commenting.
