Making a Horse With Dad



I remember talking to him about my drawings and art. He preferred our abstract works to our realistic pictures and discouraged figuration, which is silly - children want to be able to draw things that look real. He wasn't very understanding of the little girl stuff: that's why you have a mother. But the best project we made with him was an amazing life-scale horse. Little girls love horses, and what could be better than making a realistic, life-size horse with your dad?" —Rebecca Smith on her father David Smith

Happy Father's Day



• Slept in until 10am.
• Chocolate croissant and bacon in bed.
• Rad card.
• Sing-a-long with Elsa to "Sloop John B".
• Drum-a-long with Astrid to "Wouldn't It Be Nice".
• Cooling off in the kiddie pool.
• I smell a chocolate cake.

Hope you all had a good one.

What to write in a card for Mom:

You have sparkly eyes, red hair, a lot of freckles, red lips, shiny eyes too. And most of all: Mommy, a beauty queen.

"When women complained that they didn’t feel safe after dark, he [Bogotá mayor Antanas Mockus] organized several women-only nights. Men were encouraged to stay home and take care of the children while the women could attend free concerts around town."
