Bray's Little Monster.

Bray & monster making the "RAWR" Face.
Monster trying to "blend in" in the bathroom. He wasn't as sneaky as he thought...

My son has been in a monster kick since he was introduced to the movie Monster's Inc., & as I was sitting at my sewing table trying to figure out what to do with all this scrap fabric he walks up to me & says he wants a monster. WHAT LUCK!!! What luck that at the very moment I'm about to go sit back down in front of the tv my 3 year old gives me motivation!! & out of that request for a monster this little critter was born! I'm pretty sure that this is, by far, my favorite stuffie that I've made to date. =D I've always been a little insecure about making stuffies because in the past they haven't turned out as well. But practice makes perfect & I am now going to try to start making them more often.

In lonely fields
Where willows weep,
I feel at home.
I lay; I sleep.

And as I sleep
I drift away.
I dream the things
I long to say.

The beautiful trees,
The stars in the sky,
I beg them not to pass me by.

As everyone ages
And spring turns to fall,
I lie & wait.
I watch it all.

Time it stops for no single being.
But I wish it would slow down.

So I just sit here
With the willows,
And all of us will frown.
