Today is Universal Children’s day. Yay for Kids! – I’m a mother of 3, by the way. Yes, I understand, “yay” is all a matter of perspective — and no, I’m not dilerious.
What is children’s day?
“… to be observed as a day of worldwide fraternity and understanding between children. It recommended that the Day was to be observed also as a day of activity devoted to promoting the ideals and objectives of the Charter and the welfare of the children of the world. … ” from UN.org
Then there is Children’s day:
“Children’s Day, was proclaimed by President Bill Clinton in October 2000. He declared that it be held on November 16th.” from wikipedia
Sounds all very complicated, or I need to partake in the afternoon nap more often. Either way, I personally think every day should be a day for children because every child is a little miracle and a big blessing…. children are our futures and they are our inspiration.
If only we could each look through the eyes of a child more often. Life might just then be a little less complicated a lot more sincere.
Some fun quotes for the day…
Cleaning your house while your kids are still growing up is like shoveling the walk before it stops snowing. ~Phyllis Diller
A child is a curly dimpled lunatic. ~Ralph Waldo Emerson
Boy, n.: a noise with dirt on it. ~Not Your Average Dictionary
What is a home without children? Quiet. ~Henny Youngman
There are no seven wonders of the world in the eyes of a child. There are seven million. ~Walt Streightiff
There is a garden in every childhood, an enchanted place where colors are brighter, the air softer, and the morning more fragrant than ever again. ~Elizabeth Lawrence

Zazzle is having another contest and the penguins and I are there to try for another fun adventure. The topic this time around is office humor… working from home on my own doesn’t leave much room for the water-cooler joke experience. I do think, however that the penguins make me giggle all day long, so it’s worth a shot.
I’d love your vote too. You do have to log in as a member of zazzle to vote.
Thanks so much for your support!
The penguin’s mug, on a mug for the sake of work day humor… such a rough job, don’t you think? Vote here. (upper right, click on the stars to vote)

I recently found a fairly unknown JGoode Design on a fan site for Miley Cyrus… seriously!
The site, dresslikemiley.com, features outfits Miley (Hannah Montana) wears and then offers suggestions of products so viewers can create a similar outfit.
The brown Vintage Butterfly women’s tank was featured as part of a fabulous fall ensemble.
I’m especially excited because I not only know who Miley is, but actually watch Hannah Montona with my boys from time to time. It’s fun to see one of my creations associated with a name I know.
The tank has been paired with a jacket and distressed jeans making it an outfit perfect for any weather.
You can find this butterfly in a variety of colors available on a variety of shirt styles and sizes…

I entered a contest at Zazzle a few weeks ago. The contest was to design a greeting card template (a template allows buyers to customize the card). There were literally 100s of entries ranging from cute and fun to beautiful and inspiring. There’s a fabulous array of talent at Zazzle these days.
My entry was a Christmas themed penguin scene, (penguins? who woulda thunk?), complete with Mr. and Mr.s Claus, Rudolph and the elves. It was a lot of fun to create.
Now the votes are in and they say the penguins and I earned an Honorable Mention… YAY!
Thank you all who voted and left comments. I appreciate every speck of support — and contests are a lot more fun when our friends stop by.
You can purchase this card and customize with your own photo and text greetings here.
