Do you ever feel like this poor mermaid? Something is just within your reach, but you are about to be overwhelmed with waves... hurry up and grab it! That's all I have to say. I have been up to mucho things. I am trying to get sketch time in as you can see. This drawing may evolve in the future, I like the concept, but we'll see.
My family came in to visit, and everyone stayed with me at the new place. It was loads of fun doing marathon tourist stuff- Dollywood & Gatlinburg in a two day whirlwind, but really tiring!
It is really nice, however, to have some help with the younglings every now and then. When you have three children it becomes absolutely terrifying to go to places like theme parks and malls and such. You always hear the horror stories of how some poor mother 'just looked away for one second...' And really, it CAN happen that quickly. I was in the mall with my brood and even had other adult types with me to help keep watch, and my daughter slipped out of sight for a minute. I FREAKED! It seemed like an eternity, but only really moments, and we found her hiding in a clothes rack like kids like to do. That incident actually took years off of my life. I'll have to remind her of that someday...
