The Shrining

It's amazing what you find in your camera.

My daughter has taken to building little groupings of items and photographing them all throughout the house.

I refer to this as shrining, as they often look like those roadside shrines that you see near a fatal accident site.

Her shrines pop up like mushrooms and don't really seem to have a theme, just whatever objects happen to be her favorite things of the moment.

I am surprised that there is not a picture of Taylor Swift and the phrase "Basically, Mom"...involved in this grouping.

Maybe that's a good thing.

I am noticing that she has used the bathroom throw rug as a background for this composition.

If you look very closely you will notice toothpaste stains.

Bet you wish you had smell-o-vision.

The shrines don't really bother me, right now, so I just let her be her little creative self.
She's an only child and a bit on the arty side so this is a form of entertainment for her, and most likely a way of escaping my jibberish. :)

What I find interesting about her shrines are these intricate little stone towers that look on the verge of tipping but somehow, do not.

Is this some sort of a sign, I wonder? Or is she just really good at Jenga?
