Catching up

Long time, no post. I’ve been processing a lot of mostly unbloggable stuff about the boy.

For now, I’ll share our little Halloween triumph:

The boy wanted to be Calvin.  We painted stripes on a t-shirt and sprayed his hair yellow.  But of course he also needed a Hobbes, and you can’t just buy a Hobbes because Watterson never licensed the characters.  I’ll spare you the sweat and tears, but know there’s a lot of my blood on that stuffed tiger.
