Fynn in his dad’s latest foam creation, made for “Alien Day” at his art camp last week. I’ve got to keep it light today, fighting the blues and the heat here.
Without further ado then …
1. Breakfast today?
2. Last book read?
3. Coffee or Tea?
4. Kept your last name or took your spouses?
5. Word you overuse a lot …
6. Oldest person you know personally?
7. Something you’re really good at …
Thanks for playing along! Hope your week is looking good. It’s my last one with only one kid here, we make our way up to NH (somehow) this coming weekend to pick him up!
