Mad on a Gray Sea. 8220;Live in the sunshine, swim the sea, drink the wild air…" Emerson. Monday, May 16, 2011. Fabric Block and Stenciled Onesie- Easy Baby Crafts. Here's a couple crafts I've been working on:. I took some random scrap fabric, crinkly stuff, ribbon.and made. A brightly-colored soft block with taggies for the baby to squish and mush and chew on. It's a bit loud, I hope it doesn't frighten her! And I decorated a plain onesie. Stencil fabric paint= voila! We'll see if I can contain myself!

Mad on a Gray Sea: Boys and Guns, Apples and Arrows
http://madonagraysea.blogspot.com/2010/11/boys-and-guns-apples-and-arrows.html
Mad on a Gray Sea. 8220;Live in the sunshine, swim the sea, drink the wild air…" Emerson. Sunday, November 7, 2010. Boys and Guns, Apples and Arrows. I've voiced concern before over the kind of person Noah will grow up to be. After a conversation today, (which really is part of an ongoing debate about violence and masculinity between me and my 4 yr old), I'm fairly certain that he will take great pleasure in rebelling against my peace-lovin' hippy ways. Noah: Yes, Mom! Noah: So I can kill the bad guys.

Although wet snow was whipping all around us today, believe it or not, it is Spring here in Syracuse. Saturday was lovely- in the 60's, sunny. Our plan was to spend the gorgeous day on a canoe at the Beaver Lake Nature Center. But our plans often go awry. And that, my friends, is LIFE! So again, Merry Christmas, Michael! The first thing Noah wanted to do was check on the frogs. We were...
