Doodling in black and white

The kids have been doodling on the blackboard wall, and I have been doodling
on cheap china. So much fun. I need to do it more. More patiently.
That strange animal thing on the blackboard is a chicklet that Fe drew called "Flygg."
It inspires me immensely. I don't have the heart to wipe it off.

Also: Yes! Yes to life, and lists, and getting things done. And friends, too.

Happy weekend (again).

PS I hear it's Father's Day in most countries that I know (not here, though). Still:
Happy Father's Day.

The Wall.

So, this is it, our blackboard wall. Needless to say, we love it.
I love it, the kids love it, the husband LOVES it, too (yay!), although he
wasn't so sure when he saw me starting the project. It already feels
like it has been part of our family forever. I can't believe it's taken me
this long to convince J. (But oh right, I didn't! I just painted it.
Sometimes that's what it takes.)

Well, I see a lot of fun ahead.

I reiterate my former point: Everybody needs a clown wig.
But also: Everybody needs a blackboard wall.

(And now I need to go before they take apart the house. You cannot believe
what these two have been up to lately.)
