A New Baby

I know a mommy who has two sons and just delivered a third one…..so I thought I would give her a piece of pear!!

His name is Robert )

I won’t Flip Flop

I don’t care how much you…..

• whine
• pout
• cry
• stomp up the stairs
• say things like ” it’s unfair”, “just this once”, “everybody else does” and “I hate you mom”

That is the rule.

(this is artwork done in Illustrator)

hummmphh…

Illustration Friday…seed

I planted a seed and now I have a beautiful flower. My flower grows separate from the other flowers. She is a beautiful, unique and giving flower, but the other flowers don’t see that. She tries to share her beauty but is often ignored. As long as she keeps true to herself and doesn’t let any seed of insecurity or self doubt grow, she will not become the weed the others may…..

In Anticipation

This is what I hope to find tomorrow morning, well, a queen size mattress would be nice too. It is rainy today, so my arthritis tells me….lets just hope the cots are dry.

Everyday in May…another attempt

**I tried to post this yesterday and had all sorts of funky things going on with wordpress, so this might be an omen from the start that this isn’t going to go well**

Two years ago I attempted this and it nearly killed me, and may have been what pushed my blogging over the edge actually, but I am itching to try again. I have changed it a bit, and using my first, (which should be my second illo) to say I will try to post every WEEK day. The lovely artist and talented mother, French Toast Girl, began this and I love the idea!!

But weekends are crazy, for example I am heading out with my youngest daughter to Girl Scout camp this weekend. Otherwise there would be soccer games and family stuff so I am giving myself the okay to just post art on weekdays…..so here goes.

and a little button…..

Doodling April Vacation…..

……okay, so I was doodling one night up in New Hampshire. Our vacation wasn’t all fun and games. A bit of yard work, a few loads of recycleables to the town swap shop and the usual laundry, food shopping and soccer games were also on the to-do list.

And with the recent purchase of our new car, mini bus, which is equipped with a dvd player, I have been having strange dreams with recycled phrases from kids movies, and being zapped by a transmukian device…..hmmph.

Spring Color

Illustration Friday – pet peeves

(I have been saying peeves over in my head too many times to the point where I don’t think it sounds like a real word…anyway….)

My pet peeves me when I am used a kneading pillow in the wee hours of the morning. And quite often find that his back side is too close to my eyeballs.
