I read The Last Time We Say Goodbye on a long flight. I wanted something simple, quick to read and this was it. Amazon kept recommending it and I knew it was going to be kind of a tear jerker. But I read it anyway. I don’t remember enough of it to tell you how great it was but I do remember it wasn’t bad. Nothing amazing either. A good book for a long flight. All of these cards are drawn with the Micron pens and then I used watercolor pencils for the borders. Card nine says: Keep your face to the sunshine and you can never see the shadow.

As a culmination of their Social Studies work, David’s school has a tradition that the 5th grade class puts on a Colonial Play. Each of the kids gets to pick a character and then they write 1-2 scenes with that character. All the scenes are then sent to a company which weaves them into a play. They then come to the school with costumes, props and the kids put the play on for the parents. This means the play is different each time since the kids are writing the scenes. Pretty awesome, no? David was Patrick Henry this year. (His first choice was Nathan Hale.) I will admit I knew pretty much nothing about him but I still loved watching the play. I love how much my physics-loving kid loves History. I love how he already knows so much more than I do. I love love love everything this child adds to my life. Thank you, David.

Here’s week fourteen in my sketchbook. Actually I am not entirely sure which week but here we are. Some cute lamps this week, because why not. [Sorry for the different processing, I am on the road and don’t have Photoshop with me.] Here are closer shots of each side:

I read Mosquitoland because it looked really interesting. I didn’t know the premise as well as I should have and it’s indeed a heavy subjectmatter (as much of YA lately) but I still read it all in one sitting. I found myself hooked into the story, attached to the main character and even though there is a lot of disturbing content, I didn’t want to put it down. There were a few books that came out around this time that I read in a row and each of them left an impression on me. Mosquitoland was definitely one of them. All of these cards are drawn with the Micron pens and then I used watercolor pencils for the borders. Card four says: The difference between ordinary and extraordinary is that little extra.
