'Start the day with a smile and get it over and done with' are the words this week. To enable me to link to Erik's theme of Home sweet home on Art Journal Journey I have included a window, some bricks and a house roof on Jean's head.
Jean had gone to visit her friend Celia, and Celia was not really looking forward to her visit. Jean was very critical of her friend's view on life and didn't feel she was making the best of things. It was a beautiful sunny day in early Spring and Jean had gone round to persuade Celia to go to a local garden that had a wonderful display of snowdrops of many different types. They were one of her favourite flowers and her Grandma's memory flowers. They had even managed to get some out of season when her grandmother was very ill.
"Come on Celia, I really want you to see them, and it will do you good to get out in the sunshine, Come on you know you really want to"
Celia had to smile at her friend and reluctantly got up and put her outdoor clothes on.
"There you go, start the day with a smile and get it over with" said Jean.

This is another wonderful story on this topic and your page is fantastically thought out!
Have a good day , hugs Elke
Ha ha, that is a funny quote this week. And nice story Wendy. I love your page. I think the window was a super addition and how it looks outside. That's a clever way to represent home. Thanks so much for linking up to AJJ. And have a great rest of the week. hugs-Erika
I love how you used the quote to end the story. A great story and a fab picture for your journal.
I just wish we had some more figures to play about with instead of what she comes out with these days.
Hope all is coming together now.
Hugs, Neet xx
