Painting Books on Bricks – The Hobbit

Caroline did a swap with another creative woman at our church earlier this summer. For her part of the swap, Caroline painted a brick to look like a book of The Hobbit.

And here’s the brick!




I know I’m her mom and all, but it was really lovely and well-done. I’m amazed at how well Caroline can take something and replicate it.

The recipient was very happy with it as well!

For 20+ years, I’ve been writing about following Jesus Christ and making choices based on what is true, beautiful, and eternal. Through purposeful living, self-employment, and homeschooling, our family has learned that freedom comes from a commitment to thoughtfully examine all of life and think for yourself.
