Sunday, February 15, 2009. Oh My, Valentines! Okay, so my Aunt Peggy's scored big on the boys' list. Big-big-BIG. A small package with big punch arrived late last week, and the boys opened it to find everything their little hearts could desire: candies, talking-giggling Valentine's Day cards, and. POKÉMON CARDS! It was a very happy end to an otherwise grey day. BIG THANKS to Aunt Peggy from the boys! What a great surprise! That wasn't the end of the celebrations, though! Thursday, February 12, 2009.

Thursday, November 12, 2009. Yesterday was a rainy Armistice Day, so we went to the movies ( Panda! 8212;huge thumbs up from all four of us) and spent the rest of the day drawing or trying to make sense of the disorder of our household, depending upon the age of the individual. Frankly, I wished I were doing like the young 'uns, but had to allow for the fact that by organising things in my studio space, I could better be drawing in the near future. Today, for example. As in: "Uhm. Are you serious? The Om...

Friday, May 29, 2009. More Fun With Bugs. A drawing done the other night, from the day's memories. Above is a fleeting moment in the lives of two boys who love. There's a BAD BEETLE! Why is it that Moms are always given the most thankless of tasks? He scooped it up and carried it all the way home, despite the relentless tickling, where we sequestered it - of course. The next morning, Tomi gasped again and cried out, "EGGS! SHE LAID TWO SETS OF EGGS! In any case, excitement abounds! Thursday, May 14, 2009.

Tuesday, January 27, 2009. A Disasters Emergency Committee (DEC) Appeal. For those of you living in the United States, I know that it is hard to get past the religiously-saturated political quagmire, and in fact much easier to avoid the subject of the conflict in Gaza altogether. I hope that you will watch this appeal, though, and give the conflict some thought from another angle or two. Thursday, January 22, 2009. Waking Up, Smelling the Coffee. Fyi - pictures have nothing to do with the text. But back ...

Thursday, May 14, 2009. Not that I think you wanted to know that. I didn't want to know that, either. But when you've whacked upwards of a hundred of them (and that's not including their larva and the pupæ), you start to know these things. And more. But hang on. Did you even know that weevils exist. Because I didn't. But they do. And there is a huge nest of them on my terrace. I used to think they were dung beetles of some sort. (Don't even get me started on the pigeon nest under. I was reading to the bo...

Wednesday, September 24, 2008. Happy Birthday to Me! What a gorgeously autumnal, delicious, hilarious and generally fantastic day - and well into the night. A few words and pictures to illustrate the point:. A scene from the end of a long, lovely, languorous lunch at. (drum roll.) the Buerehiesel -! During which we thought often of Ellen and Donnie, and which was followed by a walk in the park that merited the same and other, similar adjectives. The poster reads: A mother, a patriot, a warrior: Jenny!

Thursday, March 05, 2009. Funny Episode #8,752,324. I have often wondered about what constitutes "weird." My friend Amy and I used to say, "You're weird! As though it were another way of saying, "Hello! And now I'm the mom of twin five-year-old whippersnappers. But another W-word comes to mind often, when confronted with their questions, responses, stories and, well. this kind of thing:. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Thursday, April 23, 2009. La fleur de vie*. He wanted to make copies to send as cards. So we scanned it, and. It turns out that flourescent markers (used for half of the colours, here) don't scan well at all. I did get a few photos this week, including:. Two happy boys in short-pants-cum-shorts made by Gamma with heart. And talent! La fleur de vie = the flower of life = an important part of the film, one of which you can see in this drawing.
