Two more polymer clay cane decorated eggs
Orange flower polymer clay cane egg
This was a fun and quick polymer clay covered chicken egg to make. I enjoyed it because of the contrast between the orange and deep green. I also find the abstract iterations of the various canes at different sizes. This probably reflects my dislike of rigid repeats (kind of like the machine made precise stuff) and the orderly-chaos creats opportunity for “finding” the slightly different stretches, squashed and reduced repeats. These polymer clay cane eggs are practice for the 10 (well, i broke one, so now 9) ostrich eggs I purchased for this purpose.
Fashion statement: Corin’s Yin Yang
This is just too awesome, LOL, a designer of cool clothes. She uses her tablet, draws, and then addes a few stickers and shading. At 7 yo she is a great talent.

Corin’s angel character for her movie “The small ones”
Corin is creating a cast of characters for her new movie. “movie” in quotes though I dont doubt for an instant that her daddy will supply her with some animation software (to use at the tender age of 7) so she could actually animate such a movie, at least a little. If she were at my house should could use my rather outdated version of SwishMax4 and that would be awesome fun. Here is one of the cast characters, clearly a wonderful little girl angel, whose name is yet to be determined.

Learning the parts of speech (my way)
When visual and artistic cues help us learn the basics we get “perfectly lady-like parts of speech”.
Imaginary friends
Corin sent me a picture of two of her imaginary friends. Angel unicorn and carrot cat?

Sara Witts End
Lessons about love I learned from this dog:
1) No matter what; no matter how comfortable you were, no matter how cold, tired, or busy… NO MATTER WHAT, never miss the opportunity to sleep next to YOUR ONE person, and do it with the same appreciation, as the VERY FIRST TIME, because you know you’re lucky enough to get to.
2) Love your one person unconditionally, even when they don’t love themselves. ESPECIALLY THEN.
And make DAMN sure to keep your whole body in contact with theirs, keep them warm, and EVEN when they roll over, be SURE YOU let them know you’re with them, even if you think you’re in trouble, and you think they don’t want you
there.
3) If your one person says your name, stop everything and go find them. No matter what you’re doing. No matter how many times in a row. WHATEVER the reason, even if there’s no reason, prove to them you’ll be there, EVERY SINGLE TIME, even when it’s the last thing you want to do.
Happy Birthday Chaya
Corin has sent a message to her cousin Chaya. Be bold and have a happy birthday. I guess I could ask what that word means to two little girls, but I don’t need to be reminded to help my grandaughters understant that women need to be “bold” in their educations, and in their careers, their involvement in humanitarian and political circles, and in their attentiveness to nurturing the next generation.

Tiny little brown paper egg from Michaels and polymer clay canes
This is making do with the left overs in my polymer clay cane box. The basic form is a brown paper egg (probably from china) that i purchased from Michaels. Hobby Lobby has some different sizes of these eggs as well. This was just a quick relaxing egg, about 1.5 inches tall only.
