Today was OASIS-organized Spring Carnival on Norris East Lawn. ISRC had a face painting table tucked away in the far corner of the lawn, but we had a lot of traffic. Children's creativity and imagination always amaze me. We had girls who wanted the simple heart and butterflies, but then boys came and wanted their faces painted entirely. Others wanted a football on their hand. One kid wanted a snake biting a hawk which led to a girl wanting a hawk drawn on the expanse of her face. Two girls wanted their names written across their forehead.
It was an interesting day, to say the least. The weather is beautiful outside and I just spent the last hour and half sitting out on my knitted blanket eating and reading. It's days like these that brush Chicago's cold winters out of my mind.
