This is another “good news/bad news” post. The good news is that George’s collarbone is healed. The bad news is that he threw up a couple times today. He seemed to be recovering as we left the doctor’s office. He repeated “ememeenuts” until I realized he was asking for Peanut M&Ms.       A college friend recently asked me if I would consider designing an album package for him. Since having Georgie about 2.5 years ago, I’ve pretty much stepped out of the music industry. It’s so difficult to commit to long term design projects with kids at my feet all day. However, since I owe my passing grade in Statistics to this friend and I really miss designing, I said “yes.” Below are a handful of the comps I sent him last night. It’s always fun to see what comes out of my brain. I never really know when I start a project where it’s going to end. (Note: these are comps, so the watermarks you see in some of the images are due to low rez stock images. Those will go away once we decide on a direction and purchase the images.)
 I recently went to a playgroup where we made homemade Chia pets (thanks to our great host and my new friend,Darla) and it turned out so great I had to share. Francis is out of her mind…she thinks this Chia sock is so hilarious. mason jar The instructions are likely obvious, but I’ll recap for the heck of it: 1) Decorate your sock using hot glue and buttons. The photo above shows our Chia sock with about a months worth of growth.

how fun!!! ok, I have to ask…did the sock begin as a white sock? It looks kinda tan now! I'm guessing from all the dirt and watering. 🙂

Thanks for sharing the Chia Sock idea. I love it. Can't wait to try it with my two. Nearly thirteen years after graduating from college, there are a lot of glee club songs that I don’t remember in their entirety. One that I do remember is “The Long Day Closes,” cowritten by Arthur Sullivan before his shared fame with W.S. Gilbert. The words, pasted below, come to mind when I’m putting the kids to bed, but only when they’re content to snuggle and listen rather than demand new made-up songs. Then I go lay awake myself thinking about having sung a song about death to my kids. Come to think about it, my kids are experts on songs about death. They’ve heard this one, “Loch Lomond,” and “Danny Boy” hundreds of times. No star is o’er the lake, Sit by the silent hearth The lighted windows dim |
