Pound the 'nail-head'

10/28/10

my kids are creators and so am i...

i love when they 'art' i will not lie...

just awhile ago i tightened the slack...

and said, to the world,

'i want my crayons back.'

lily...desmond...if it's in you keep doing it

no matter what 'they' say...no matter what your mind tells you...

find your niche...

find the nail-head and pound that poor sucker

until it's flush with the level of your soul...

-daddy

cloudy day thanks......

Rain, clouds, cool weather, gratitude lists, and ukulele music....for these things, todd is thankful.

Bird In A Sweater

Clarence was happy to see the darkening sky.

He liked gray clouds.

His last minute decision to put on a sweater 

had been a good choice.

Simple Reminder

Artist trading card flurry

Jenny turned Todd on to the 'artist trading card' sized paper.

Todd likes pens and 'working quick.' it may not be long before he has

hundreds of 2.5 by 3.5 inch sized cards with doodles, quotes, and all sorts of general

goofiness on them....perhaps he should just leave them wherever he's at?

(be it a restaurant, park, bookstore, record store, bar, etc.)

All i can do...today

sometimes 'showing up' is all you can do

while you set goals and dream a little...

sometimes 'showing up' and admitting that you've

done just that....can open up a world of possibilities

today, i'm dreaming of the country again...

Choice

He knew just what he wanted to be for Halloween.

It was a good choice.

Milton

Milton was a kind and gentle fish

who loved handsomely knit sweaters.

Somehow....

the book is actually entitled, 'do what you love and the money will follow.'

do it for the love of 'the thing'

it'll reciprocate somehow...

Break Time

todd is a ponder-er & there's been no time to ponder

lots of talk, not a lot of wonder

so now it's break time for a bit....

Reminder For Today

sometimes we forget

paper doll do-ing

Jenny introduced 'paper dolls' to Todd.

Todd liked the idea.

Todd likes a lot of Jenny's ideas.

Todd started 'doing.'

Todd is a do-er.

Sweater Day

he knew it would be 

a glorious day

in his stripped 

turtleneck sweater

Cartoon-y
