Elephant's Picture Book 
My father was obsessed with watches. So am I and so is the Crenshaw family in my books 🙂 I love this picture.
Hello again! Watches are a “thing” with people – I like the beautifully crafted ones when you can see the mechanism – it relaxes me to watch the watch tick away.
I will be checking in on all the interesting posts I missed – looking forward to it!

Obviously you need to grow more, since it takes time to have time!
Oh, my . . . now let me think about this . . . this growing and needing time could become a problem!

So cute and I love all the little watches in the picture.
I do too. I would like to grow time, but I am not sure planting a watch is the key to this!

One never knows; perhaps it is!
Bury the watch, and we become masters of our own time????
I found an old watch on the floor of a changeroom months and months ago. It has served me faithfully ever since. The power of watches must never be underestimated.
I like this whole notion of looking at time differently.
Nice when you find a watch that has been lost in a drawer or somewhere and it is still ticking away telling the time and has been all the while it was “lost.”
I will not underestimate the power of watches!
