Today's Table

This morning's table greeted me with candy-coated sweetness. Nothing better for chasing away a case of the Grays than a rainbow of Kaitlbugs. I'll be spending today (and probably tomorrow too) bringing them all to life.

Thank you for all your sweet/encouraging/commiserating comments yesterday! It made me feel so much better to know that I'm in good company. Sometimes I feel like I'm just talking to myself. Sometimes I am just talking to myself, but I guess I'm okay with that. Hope you're all having a colorful day!

Oh no! I've fallen into a Comparison Trap!

I need to re-resolve my resolution. . . I resolve to avoid the dreaded Comparison Trap. I have fallen in many times, comparing myself to bigger and fancier birds. Well, my plumage may not be so bright, but it keeps me warm. My nest may not be grand, but it is soft and cozy and just right for my little flock. I might not sing the most eloquent song, but it's melody is sweet and clear. Today, I promise myself to keep on singing and to delight in the songs of others without being diminished by them.

This morning's table has me seeing double!

I'm excited to be starting a new batch of beasties that we'll be calling Kaitlbugs, or Katelbugs, or Katylbugs. . . Haven't quite working out the spelling yet. It's one of the dangers of making up words. It's our nickname for College Girl, but has always been a spoken thing and not a written-down thing. Suggestions?
