Share Six: {Restore}

3/6/2017

4 Comments

 
I am so excited to have been invited to join the Share Six blogging team! What an honor to work with these awesome ladies in creating a supportive photography community. Each month we share 6 images based on the theme on the 6th of the month in a blog circle. Click the link at the end to follow to the next blog in the circle.

March's theme is {RESTORE}. 

"The Doc is in and she'll fix you up. If you're a toy, then you're in luck. It's OK; don't be afraid, the Doc really knows her stuff. Do you know it's good for you? The doc is gonna help you feel better. Oh it's the place to go when you feel a little under the weather. Let Doc McStuffins do her thing to get you right back in the swing." -Doc McStuffins Theme Song

My take on this month's theme focuses on the way my daughter {RESTORES} her stuffies.

She is obsessed with Doc McStuffins, even though she's never seen a full episode and she's seen little clips on YouTube kids. Her great grandma made her this awesome doctor's jacket for Christmas last year, so she set up a waiting room, and proceeded to diagnose each "patient" and cure each one with kisses. Then she tucked them all in bed to rest. It was one of the sweetest things I've ever seen, and her imagination just blows me away. As we grow older, I think we forget how to pretend, so it's amazing to watch her little mind work, creating completely different and fantastic worlds for herself. I read an article recently that said that we make our children too busy with activities and that we should create boredom for them because this is when their imagination really gets to work. I find this to be so true...it is when I am in the middle of something with the baby and my oldest must entertain herself that I find her engrossed in incredible storylines, complete with multiple voices and conversations for her dolls and stuffies. Not only does she {RESTORE} her stuffies, but she {RESTORES} my memories of playing pretend as a child and discovering how to imagine great things now.

What a lovely take on the theme, along with beautiful images, of course! You are so right about boredom being the doorway to imagination, as well as re-learning to see the world through the bright minds of children! ~ Tori

I love this Aubrey!. I love how you have captured her imagination at play. I was encouraged so much as a child to use my imagination. I love all your images. The first one is gorgeous and I love the image of her tucking her stuffies into bed. Beautiful share!
