wardrobe re-fashion


i found this necklace in the back of a drawer.  i think that it belonged to the hubs at some point.  chokers kinda freak me out, i think i must have a fat neck or something. but not to worry....a quick 5 minute DIY can fix just about anything. so my "i am never going to wear this" choker became a longer necklace with just a few snips and the addition of some extra chain.

joys of parenting: the boy

the boy: 
"i want a super hero beard like daddy
[as he smears his face with plaster of paris]



you may not get to wear fancy clothes.
but there is a fantasticlly imaginative game of 
"shark rescue super hero" 
that takes place in a mountain of bubbles.
by the end of the day your glasses are covered 
in yogurt finger prints and squishy nose smudge marks. 
your favorite shirt is now the canvas 
for an art project gone silly. 
plaster of pairs covers 
more than one surface in more than one room,
[and more than one person] 
and your lucky if you get a shower.


i wouldn't trade any of the mess.
greatness lies in the eye of the beholder.
[for you are you and i am i]
