My take on Random Inspiration Challenge #12: Confessions 'Post Secret' Style

Title: 4 Levels of Attention

Pavadinimas: 4 Aukštai dėmesio

This layout was done for the current Random Inspiration Challenge #12: Confessions 'Post Secret' Style. The assignment challenged us to scrap a secret or confession however serious or silly.

I chose to scrapbook a good memory of my father. 

Perhaps it was the historical post-war times that have made my father's generation rather emotionally aloof, it was difficult getting positive attention from him.

My confession's summary (I'm sure you can read it by enlarging the photo).

My family would go mushroom and berry picking setting out early in the morning before sunrise. My mom  would be preparing for the trip, leaving my dad in charge of waking me up. He tried to shake me awake, but I was a hard sleeper. Then he would wrap me in a blanket and carry me down 4 flights of stairs (hence the title) to the parked car. My confession: I was just pretending to be sleeping :) Just so I could have some attention.

Štai mano 'išpažintis'-- Konkursinis Nr. 12 kuriame buvau norodžius prisipažinti kokį rimtą ar kvailą paslaptį. Nors esu suplanavus net 3 temas šiam konkursui, ši man pasirodė svarbiausia įamžinti.

Istorija tokia: Kada dar buvau mažas kleckas, su šeimynėle dažnai vykdavome grybauti bei uogauti po LT tolimus miškus. Visad išvykdavome net saulei nepakilus. Mama liepdavo tėvui mane pabudinti, o tas labai stengdavosi mane prikelti, bet aš atseit miegodavau kaip lavonas. Tada jis pagriebdavo mane į savo glėbį, ir nusileisdavo 4 aukštus žemyn į kiemo mašinų aikštelę mane paguldyti į mašiną. 

Mano išpažintis: Aš beveik niekad nemiegodavau...tai buvo vienas būdas kaip man gauti truputėlį daugiau jo dėmesio. Gal keista, ar graudu kad šis prisiminimas, šis trumpas laikotarpis, tapo geriausia, pozityvi tėvo asociacija.

Vaikystės nuotraukos su tėvu neturėjau, tad pasirinkau šią 2003 m. Kaune darytą nuotrauką ;)
