eletelephony says it all

eletelephony, by laura e. richards
Once there was an elephant, 
Who tried to use the telephant—
No! No! I mean an elephone
Who tried to use the telephone—
(Dear me! I am not certain quite
That even now I've got it right.)
Howe'er it was, he got his trunk
Entangled in the telephunk;
The more he tried to get it free, 
The lounder buzzed the telephee—
(I fear I'd better drop the song
Of elephop and telephong!)

Quickie status update…
That poem says it all about my week last week. The good news is that I think I was able to sort out the most important parts, and the rest, I just can't worry about. It just is. I'm finding that honing little skill is coming in reeaaally handy as I move forward with the business. It doesn't come so naturally to this little planning, (not so) closeted control freak. But, if I don't, I can get caught up (as I did last week), locked down in place with no gain for me or the business. Much like my rule as a mom: if it doesn't send belle&beanzer to the ER, a bump or scrap wont phase me.

I received the last of my prototypes for the line. YAHOO!! I'm VERY happy with them and just need to fit them. So far, mostly just tweaking, a tad bit of rethinking. 

Good stuff coming up…
color/print/art mood boards!!! I'm soo-so-sooo (SOO!) excited about the direction I'm taking with this. It's all about intention & inspiration behind the direction, which speaks to the integrity of the business, and that makes me way, way, WAY happy. SPOILER: Inspirational new beginnings. 

website!! what the what? That's right! No spoiler here, just wait and see :) 

today's moment…
was in the car with my children this morning. the sunlight was pouring through the windows, and their blonde hair looked nearly white. they were singing, and making up a dance in their seats to the song, and their laughter filled the car. all I could think was, I am SO lucky to be here for this moment.

The mood of the moment

I was inspired recently by art work from Surgarboo as seen on Sweet Peach.
Thank you Sweet Peach for bringing inspiration to me every day!

It's long been a plan of mine to create artwork for the line that is meaningful. When our babies are born, we want THE WORLD for them, don't we? We want to show it to them,
watch them experience, share in their joy, wipe away their tears,
and spoon feed all the love their hearts can hold. Right?

When saw this art, I believe it really got the to essence of a feeling, of a moment.
I was inspired to create a mood board around it. Check it out!
