Happy Mother's Day!

The obligatory Mother's Day post a day late. Oh well. I started it on time!

A few weeks ago we went to the Cherokee Triangle Art Fair. In our 11 years in Louisville, we've attended the fair most years.

As with most things, the art fair through a 4 year old's eyes is a new experience.

Unfortunately, they didn't have a face painter. So, I promised she could work on her own "butterfly."

Nothing special. I was drawn to the colors in this toy of hers.

I thinks she's making a statement here with Barbie. See hows she's buried up to her neck and then forced to look in the mirror? Perhaps, it's a comment on societal expectations and the impossible standards set by our modern media. Or, maybe she's just playing beach....

Just had to throw in a picture from our Dr. visit last week. Scare tactics much?

Ahhhh. My darling daughter on Mother's Day. We attended another art fair...Locust Grove this time. Mom found some old chairs to use as outdoor planters, very cute! Dev and I bought 2 bars of Vegan soap and a pair of blue crystal earrings for me.

Later, Matt took my Mom golfing and I prepared dinner. We had filet mignon from the family farm, mashed potatoes and Sweet and Sour green beans. I made Oatmeal White Chocolate Chunk cookies for dessert.

Whew!

Those fish are awesome! I love that Devin is not only a true makeup artiste, but makes a strong social commentary as well! She's got it all at 4! I really hate the vaccine scare tactics. Give us facts and let us parents decide. I'm a delay-er. Can it really be good to give 5-6 immunizations at once or do we really need to give a less than 3 day old infant a Hep. vacc? Personal decisions for sure, but scare tactics tend to make me rebel! I'm bad like that!
