Pre-school Art

(Day 9 of NaBloPoMo)


Well, we are starting to see lots of pre-school art trickle in when The Superhero comes home from school.

Since the kids have never gone to school we have only had the occasional piece of art come from church. But, now that school has started, it is a whole different story. The Superhero likes to display his art on the fridge, as I show in the picture below.

BUT, I know, I cannot keep EVERYTHING.

So, how do you decide what to keep? How do you explain to your kids, or do you explain to your kids that you are not keeping everything? Or do you just let things "disappear"?

I know I will keep the beauty below, it was the first one he brought home and is VERY representative of his favorite color, green. :-)

Diabetes Art Day 2010

(Day 1 of NaBloPoMo)


So, Lee Ann from The Butter Compartment had this BRILLIANT idea to start a "Diabetes Art Day". No creativity necessary, just come up with something to create using Diabetes as the inspiration.

I know several of my fellow D Mom bloggers are participating, so I finally decided we would join the fun!






I am NOT a creative, artistic person, but had this idea...



The World Diabetes Day symbol is a blue circle...

And I knew we had blue Animas Insets...






So I came up with this...


And THAT's as creative as it gets around here!

You can also check out some other Diabetes Art Projects at I am Your Pancreas , Candy Hearts,Beta Buddies, D Tales, We Caralot, Houston We Have A Problem, Life Is A Box Of Chocolates, , Sugar Kids, and at A Work In Progress.
