I am pretty sure that Rowan is color blind

I think Rowan has a red/green color deficiency. He can name all of the colors but cannot distinguish between red and green. I can't even imagine not being able to see the color red!!! One of my favorite colors. Anyone have any experience with this?

Happy Mother's Day!


This is me and I think my mom was pregnant with Katie


This is me and my sister Katie. She is sitting on the bike. Looks like my mom's hairstyle is popular again! I see this inverted "bob" all over C-ville!


I couldn't ask for a better mom! Isn't she beutiful?

My Children's Artwork



I never thought of robbing a cheese bank! You?


Forrest has always been one to believe that everyone is equal and until we all come together there will be no peace! We should listen more to our children.


Don't you just love pink unicorns? I believe in them.



This one totally cracks me up. Forrest called a family meeting years ago. Topics to be discussed are as follows:
  • 1. chores
  • 2. allowance
  • 3. fault
  • 4. dinners
  • 5. bedtime
  • 6. tv opportunities
  • 7. fun trips
  • 8. report card rewards
  • 9. loaning
  • 10. listening
What is even more funny are the little drawings. I love the volcanoes that are erupting and spewing forth little people! I'm assuming the the angel is Forrest....of course....he would do no wrong. All of these were done by Forrest over 10 years ago. He is now a cinema student at VCU!

Look what I dug up!


I was going through a box of old things....children's artwork, report cards and other odds and ends. I came across this painting that I did almost 24 years ago (Where does the time go?)! Anyway.....it is interesting to see that some themes have remained constant in my art.....it seems I am always drawing or painting houses. The only thing missing from this painting is a few birds!
