We've been frenetically busy preparing to say goodbye to our beloved St Paul home. Today I had a chance to look through artwork done in and around the house - they will be great keepsakes of the house, yard and neighborhood that we've loved for a little over 12 years. My husband's job is bringing us to a Rochester, MN, and I look forward to creating as many good memories there.

I'm not going to pretend I don't get annoyed that there's only a few minutes between interruptions. But he's not always going to want to climb into my arms at the easel.
