somewhere in the middle

Thank you, dear Marjojo, for the push to get me back here. It's been so long i didn't know where to start but Erin, you are so right (and wise), that i just need to start in the middle. I had an awesome post written up in my head awhile ago but for the life of me, i can't remember any of it! So i am starting back again somewhere else...for real now.

Sad that i don't have any new artwork to share. My basement studio looks so forlorn and dusty. I can't believe i haven't completed any art for over a year! what kind of artist does that make me, if even one at all?? :(...

But my life has felt fuller and more meaningful since having this little one:


Jaksen @ almost 3 months, taken in June last year. Thank you, Aunt Kazu for this awesome onesie!

He is walking and throwing tantrums now but still super goofy and super cute. People are amazed (surprised) such a beautiful being came from John and me. what the heck but i'll take it. 

 
1 year old! taken this past June.

This kid likes to play ping pong and say duck and fish. I'm still waiting to hear someone call me mommy...

So like this post, my life is all baby baby now. We have started doing chores together, like washing dishes and sweeping the floor. Hopefully, soon he'll help me clean up my studio and we can make art together!
