I *Heart* My Friends

This photo of Cadence (hot DANG, she looks like a KID!) shows her wearing a Sew Rad creation by our friend Jan Hammer, the lovely wife of Ryan Hammer, who plays bass in the Tim Lowly band with Ted. Jan and Ryan went to the Rosie Thomas/Denison Witmer show with me on Sunday night. When I went to pick them up at their apartment, Jan delievered a bag of goodies, which included this lovely t-shirt. It is totally the type of shirt I'd want to wear if I were a two-and-a-half year old indie rock toddler. Jan and her stitchin' friends inspire me to learn how to sew.
My friend Michele has been working on the 5 questions I gave her to answer on her blog. She's gotten throught the first 2, and her posts are definitely worth a read. Post #1 is the answer to the question "What traditions from your family of origin do you plan on continuing in your *new* family?" And Post #2 is the answer to the question "What are a few of your favorite Montessori-based activities that anyone can do in their home with their toddler/preschooler?" I took a lot away from both posts. This will be required reading material for Ted.
One of the reasons my mind is so blank this week is because I'm grieving over the Virgian Tech shootings. Carol of Bokumbop wrote a post on Kimchi Mamas that pretty much articulates why this tragedy has had such a deep impact on many Koreans here in the U.S. (I was born in Seoul, if you don't know) and back home in the motherland (and I'm sure, around the world). Besides the killer sharing my ethnic and immigrant background, as a mom, I can't help feeling for all the mothers and fathers affected personally by this tragedy. The always-inspiring Jen Lemen cross-posted what her sister Patience wrote which was something really beautiful for one of those moms.
That's it for this week. Next week, I will unveil the New and Improved Photography of Sarah-Ji made possible by a generous grant from my mother.
