Jake's Birthday

So, today I made no Art...it is Jake's Birthday and I got to Melanie's house at 8AM to begin the Birthday Day. I gave Jake a new setup of Playdough (quiet play) and he liked it...also sang HB to him. Fed him soft pasta with butter and cheese and also made him scrambled eggs...he couldn't eat the eggs because his throat is still bothering him from the tonsilectomy. He made it to school but had to leave with me because he ran out of gas and I returned with him later on for his party at school. That went well. As the party wound down, one of the Mom's who does Photo shoots brought a truck full of wheelbarrows and we gave the kids rides in them...GREAT...Blue, red and yellow wheelbarrows...a dozen or more. The school only wanted to keep one so the parents there got to take them home. Jake wanted a red one and I got a yellow one and I somehow struggled the two of them into my car and dropped his off at home, went back for Melly and Liz and the party stuff...went to Melly's so he could open his gifts from the kids at school...what a haul! I just left and came to the library on my way home. It was about 5:20 when I got here...a long and fruitful day and I am tired. I do have something to show for the day..a bright, yellow wheelbarrow! I will go home and unload it and enjoy the color and the newness of it...sturdy conveyance. So, that is my Art for the day...doing my bit and enjoying the colors and shapes of the wheelbarrows...I will think about creating tomorrow...after all, tomorrow is another day...heh heh...
