Museum Visit

How could I possibly pass up the opportunity to see, “chastely sensual maidens, impossibly pristine pheasant children and serene, Raphael-like Madonnas” on a Wednesday workday? 😯 • Between school visits, I had time to drop into @milwaukeeart and see this impressive Bouguereau exhibit. (Check out the closeup detail on the white lace dress: jaw-dropping.)

New fan!

I’m so blessed to open social media and see images like this. Little Mila totally made my day. ❤️ “Three Cheers For Kid McGear!” debuts this fall; it seems like it was written for her!

Funny

This made me laugh — for an unreasonable amount of time. 😂(Hubby did not find it that funny, but I’m telling myself that he just didn’t see the joke.)

Hmmm?

So, my 18yo comes to the dinner table and sits down with this beverage, as if it’s the most normal thing in the world. 😳🤦🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️
