Dispatch from the Hall of Justice, Mommy Style.
Today, I simultaneously
1) Nursed 3 week old daughter
2) Pushed shopping cart down aisle at Target with remaining hand
3) Evaluated construction, measurements, and general value of shelving units
4) Admonished 3 year old daughter not to climb on beanbag display
5) Further admonished 7 year old daughter not to admonish 3 year old as that is Mommy's job.
So, when will they issue my cape?
Coming soon: More on the style discussion....What is the "Art Journal" style, anyway, and what do other obsessive scrappers think?

Oh sounds so like something my mom used to do.
You get some kind of reward for that!!! I am impressed!
I don't know exactly how to describe art journal style- but I have been doing it for years on and off. Never knew it had a name until a few months ago! {I like it!}
Congratulations! You do deserve a cape!
Oh yeah - that's where we earn our stripes!!! And the line to your 7 yo about it being Mommy's job is said daily here to my 7 yo also. "You are not the Mommy." :)
Gorgeous baby, Elaine!!
Mwa-ha-ha! Hey, better watch it, Missy... in Colorado you can get a ticket for meeting your child's nutritional needs in public...
SO right there with the 3YO/7YO thing. I remind Fisher at least four thousand times a week that he's not the Rhys Police. It helps that it rhymes. Though it seems to have no effect on his overall behavior.
