Don't you just hate it...

when you lose your neck?



Bodies are so confusing!

Happy Mama's Day

Margery Glovin is my Abuelita, my mama Pamcita's mama.
She's a talented artist. She lives on Cape Cod and paints the
beauty she finds in the world around her.

Doesn't this sliced orange look good enough to eat?



As soon as I get some teeth,
I want to sink them into the apple on the right:



You can see more of Abuelita's work on her blog:
Margery's Watercolors and Oil Paintings

Maybe someday she'll teach me to paint.
For now, I probably need to focus on the basics -
burping and pooping and being cute.

On Mother's Day, here's to all the different kinds of mamas,
near and far, spanning time, distance and definition...

3 weeks, 3 Mamas

My 1st Mama fed and cared for me for 9 months.
She did a good job:
I was a big, healthy baby - 7 pounds!

I don't know much about her:
She was 22 and originally from Honduras,
Guatemala's neighbor to the south:



She couldn't keep me with her,
and left me in the hospital,
right after I was born
(which had to be tough,
considering how cute I am...)

Now I live in Antigua, Guatemala
with my 2nd, foster mama.
She likes to dress me up in frilly lace:


(note that she's in a comfy tee-shirt)


On March 23, I got my 3rd Mama:
Pamcita in Sodenland, USA
I haven't met her yet.
She says she's going to adopt me,
introduce me to all her family and friends,
bring me to live with her & Gabe & Athena,
be my 'forever family.'
I've got a wait-and-see attitude.
After 3 mamas in 3 weeks,
I'm taking life one Mama at a time.
