After a bit of an absence I'm jumping in again for
Ms. Jenny's Alphabe-Thursday.
This week we are studying the letter "P" as in PAPER art.
Take a look at this guy! He's made out of paper. This is Okoa The Wave Rider. We stumbled upon him while down at MD Anderson Cancer Center for one of Reid's appointments recently.
I'm sorry that the picture of the sign isn't very clear. He was an art project by the patients, families and staff at MD Anderson's Cancer Center. The project was made possible by the Arts In Medicine Program. The sign tells the story behind Okoa, but all of these pictures were taken with our cell phones and I know the writing isn't very clear.
However, you can read the entire story behind Okoa The Wave Rider
here.
Now please head over to
Jenny Matlock..."off on my tangent" for a list of this week's participants. Thanks Jenny for sponsoring this event.
