A Day in the Life...whew!: My original mosaic project

Conversations with a 4-year-old

Sitting down to dinner...CiBaby: "I sure wish we had a horse." T-Daddy: "Well, if we had a horse we would have to live on a farm." CiBaby: "That would be GREAT!!!"

Driving in the car...CiBaby: "Mama, does Snow White have 7 dopes?"

Driving in the car...CiBaby: "Mama, I makin' sometin." CzaMama: "Really, what are you making?" CiBaby: "I making a ball out of boogers." CzaMama: "I see." (a moment of silence) CiBaby: "It not working!!!" CzaMama: "That's because you're not suppose to make balls out of boogers."

CiBaby was standing in front of her new mirror (nekkid)...CiBaby: "Look Mama! I have 2 moles right here and here." CzaMama: "No dear, those are nipples." CiBaby: "You have nipples too?" CzaMama: Yes dear, I have nipples too."

CiBaby was nibbling an apple...CiBaby: "Look Mama! A heart!" CzaMama: "You're right honey, it is in the shape of a heart!" CiBaby: "I gonna eat it, I like shapes."

When I started my mosaic class, this was the project I was going to do. However, my first order of business was to "whip up" an angel. After that was done and shipped, I snipped, clipped, glued, grouted and painted up until Christmas Eve in order to give this to my grandmother.

My grandmother loves flowers and her family. So in the corner I created a flower that has a picture of my grandmother as a young girl, then starting with CiBaby (since you all know here beautiful face) going clockwise: CiBaby, G-Mama (my mom), Auntie, Auntie Cat, and yours truly...all as small children. And in the leaf is my uncle.

I really like how it turned out.
