A vision in green

 

Sometimes, when it has been a while since I’ve blogged, it is hard to come back

It seems daunting; to fill everyone in on what you missed, to make a clever joke about why I have been gone…and so the days go by and I have no strength to attempt it.

Then comes a night like tonight, when I think- “Well by golly, Caitlin!  You can post about whatever you like!  Just slap up a picture of the March mantel the boys (Joseph really) put together for you and call it a day!”

So here we are. (With close-ups for detail)

(the dinosaur is backwards because his stomach is yellow)

Things like this mantel remind me that, while I sometimes find it slightly trying to raise little boys  (penis! booty! poop! underwear-head! nonstopwrestlingohmygooooosh!!!)  there are parts of it that are really quite delightful.
