Lunch In a Paper Bag

During the summer Jared told me to get rid of his lunch bag because he was too old for it.  And I agreed for some reason.

But then school started and I still hadn't purchased a new one and so I started drawing on his paper bags to make them more fun.

My hope was that they would be a little better than me just writing on a napkin that I love him.  I was hoping that he would see the drawing at lunch and know that I love him and that I am thinking of him.

Well I think it works because his teacher relayed to me a conversation she overheard him having with another student in his class.  Basically the other kid was trying to get Jared to throw away his lunch bag and Jared replied, "No, I won't.  My mother drew this picture for me and it is special to me."

So sweet.

Anyways, I kind of also really enjoy it, it's fun to be creative, even if it is just doodling.  I've been taking pictures of them for fun, so here they are.

 

Novalee even got into it and made this Spiderman and glued it on a lunch bag.  Hers is way cool!

I should also just say that I'm not a very creative person when it comes to thinking up on my own something to draw or to draw from memory.  I had to cheat and look at something to draw these.  :)  But they are fun and Jared likes them.  :)
