Bradley learning how to write, and a few days ago, he got hold of my mom’s shopping list and wrote a list of Mr Men books that he wanted her to buy (by copying the words from the back of one of the other Mr Men books that he has).
If you’re trying to read it, he hasn’t learnt about not wrapping words into the next line yet :)

Bradleys wish list

Yesterday, when I got to my mom’s house, he proudly showed me his new books that she’d bought him… exactly the same ones that he’d asked for :)

THREE CORNERS - JULY
I chose Art as the theme this month.  I had such grand ideas of taking some shots of true African art, but I ran out of time.  LOL!  So, instead, here are 3 shots of different types of art that I see around me most days.

I took this one at the beginning of the month. It’s by far the best piece of graffiti around here. I think it’s incredible.
I took it in an open piece of ground between Darrenwood and Linden in Johannesburg.

I posted something similar a few days ago, but I just love these massive chess pieces. They’re about thigh height, on a massive chess board at Misty Hills hotel in Muldersdrift

And then I couldn’t resist taking these photos of Bradley tonight. He made this clown suit out of paper and cardboard at school today. I love all his artwork that he brings home!

Check out Lindy and Coreys blogs for their takes on the theme.  Can’t wait to hear what August’s theme is!

Bradley loves using my camera, and this afternoon he took it from me; and declared that he was going to take pictures for my blog today. So I HAD to use them tonight :)

They’re not half bad, considering he’s only 5!

He was so cute following Connor around. He was also using the zoom for the first time, so I was surprised to see so many of his shots were in focus.

Hmmm, that lid looks interesting… what’s not shown here is 5 seconds after this was taken, Connor lifted the lid and put it in his mouth – with ants on it!
Look Bradley… pretty flowers

Isn’t he the sweetest?
This is the valentines card that was in his bag today. It’s a picture of him holding balloons.


And this was inside (ok, it was addressed to mom and dad)…
This is just a little something to say
thank you so much for all you do
for me and for the love you give me.
I know I don’t way or show it lots
but I love you more than you can imagine.

That was the closest I got to a valentine’s pressie today, no surprise there though. So, I took a photo of one of my roses in the garden :)

Every two weeks Bradley brings his artwork home from school. This picture was in his bag today. According to Bradley, this is what the picture is about… it’s our house… it’s starting to rain… there’s grass, and 2 flowers… one is dead and the other one is a rose :) … there’s a tree and 2 ladders just in case you need to pick the apples off the tree. Cute hey?f
