Third Grade Art - Sea Creatures

I love the octopus here. I think that she is confused because the whale is so small. Or maybe she's wondering if the viper fish is more of a threat than the great white shark?

First Grade Art - Night Owl

I just melted when she brought this home.

So beautiful and precious in every way.
What magic did her first grade teacher conjure up to inspire such a satisfied owl?

Thanks to all of our wonderful teachers for helping us to raise capable and creative children.

Wiggle Dresses and Granny Panties

Gertie's long been a style inspiration for me, and a great resource for retro style and sewing tips. Thanks to her, I've given myself permission to be cute in my undergarments AND be covered.

I've opted for these big, pretty babies:

And because I'm so very worth it, and I would look darling in my new dress, I also included the long line bullet bra to match.

Are we all not worthy of pretty underthings?
