On the easel...

[GKreindler]

Thank you so much for all of your kind words, everybody!! They're very much appreciated.

That Johnson painting seems to be a pretty big hit with a lot of people - I guess it's because it's a little bit different from the kind of stuff I normally do. Or maybe it isn't. I don't know. But it was definitely a challenge combining the backdrop with the carpet and then the jersey. They all had to look and feel different, which I'm hoping they do.

But seriously, thank you so much for sticking with me on this thing. And thanks for the kudos about parenthood. I don't know how you guys do it - most days I feel like I'm going to lose my mind. And the amount of money everything costs now...oh man, it was tough with one kid, but two? And we haven't even gotten close to the college years yet. Thank god we've started 529s. Hopefully I'll make it without my head exploding.
