My first attempt at making a notebook and I must say that I loved doing it and how it turned out so I will definitely be doing this again.
A new school year started (yesterday), so I was inspired to start a 365-project again. I want to picture all my most important memories in this project this school year so I get an awesome 'book' of pictures at the end.
Hopefully I won't forget making pictures because I really do wanted this a long time ago. Behind every picture there will be a real or fiction story (depends on my mood), which I will include shortly in the descriptions.
Story of the Squirrel notebook ~
Once upon a time there was a squirrel. At a night the squirrel said 'hi' to the leaves, but the leaves didn't respond. The leaves only breathed really hard. The squirrel desperately asked mothercat why the leaves were ignoring him. Mothercat answered: 'They are sleeping honey, if you want to talk to them you must wait till you see a bird in the evening. When you see a bird you can make friends'. So the squirrel waited and waited, but no bird came. The squirrel cried and cried tears out loud. Finally a gorgeous pink bird came and asked: 'My dear, why are you crying?'. The squirrel jumped up and as soon as he saw a leaf he tried to talk to it. The bird became sad and mad because he felt ignored, so she left. Back home the squirrel asked mothercat: 'Why didn't the leaves talk? I saw a bird!'. Mothercat laughed and said: 'Honey, the bird are the leaves. The leaves are the birds. They sometimes hide themselves behind those leaves. You can't even tell how smart they are! I have something for you, squirrel.' Mothercat went to her old closet and found a special blue leaf. 'This my dear, was from my old friend Mrs. Birdy. It protects you from bad animals. You can keep it well, or gift someone special with it.' So the squirrel thought about the conversation and waited the next day for the pink bird. The same bird came, but ignored the squirrel. The squirrel said sorry to the bird and gave the bird the special blue leaf. That's how the animals became friends.
