Being Max's Mommy Rocks Because....

When I am struck by an awesome idea to make him a few silly iron on t-shirts,
tshirt-start
then slave over the hot iron to make sure they come out really great... ;)

He doesn't care if they turn out just as planned,

messup
He rocks it just the same.

It's a Miniature World

I started playing around in Photoshop with an old picture from grad school graduation... Apparently, you can make people look like little miniature toys! How cool is that? (If you click on it, you can see it better.) It makes me want to start taking all my pictures like this :)

This one looks a little dollhouse-y. :)
