Cool plant pot  I made last year

You made that?!  Wow!  What is it made from?  I'm not really the artistic type so I have no idea how you'd go about creating a piece of art.  (I love the purple colour, by the way :dinothumb:)

 

PS - I'm also not good at keeping plants alive - luckily for my cat, children, and husband, I'm pretty competent at keeping animals alive, though! :P

Wow, that just brought back a suppressed memory!  

When I was in elementary school, there was a small shop just down from the school that sold models. I remember getting some dinosaur models you had to build and paint and they were always that color purple out of the box.

Theres a lot of years between now and then. I am sure she will change her mind a hundred times in the mean time.

And probably more mature than the both of us. :D

Right about that sister!  I think once you mature it's all over, that's why I refuse to.

I can't count how many times my daughter told me I was acting "inappropriate" when she was little. She is almost 30 now. We had a little scare yesterday, and she was in the hospital. So like any good mother, I carved the word "LUCK" into a coprolite, tied a sparkly blue ribbon around it and brought it to the hospital. Makes sense, right? Can you believe she wouldn't let me leave it at her bedside or put it under her pillow? It was banished to her purse. Sheeeesh...kids now days aren't any fun! It did work its magic though. Thankfully, she is home and on the mend. :)

Yeah, my daughter doesn't take cr*p off anyone either.

She says she wants to teach science, but I don't know - her reading and writing abilities are pretty awesome, and she has a fantastic imagination ...

 

Oooh. A science writer!

She used to say she wanted to be a mommy when she grew up, but we pointed out that she can be a mommy AND something else, too.  Now she says she wants to be a mommy AND a big-kid-teacher - not surprising, given what me and my husband do for a living. :P  She says she wants to teach science, but I don't know - her reading and writing abilities are pretty awesome, and she has a fantastic imagination (she and her brother are always playing with their toys - yesterday I overhead them playing with their Shopkins - apparently there was a party that was happening but not every Shopkin wanted to attend - drama!), so I predict she'll go the Arts route like her dad. :)

Pretty sure I was still eating play-doh at her age...

By the way - for school this past year, Viola had to write and illustrate her own "book" - it's AMAZING!!!  I'm going to take pictures of the pages and show you when I get my act together...

We're not suppose to eat play-doh??? :headscratch:

We couldn't afford "real" Play-Doh when I was a kid so my mother made up batches out of flour and salt. So I guess that would have been more edible, even though I can't recall ever eating it.
