Life is Art
My life, as a mother / lover / writer / seamstress / cook. Whew.
Life is Art is Kelly Hogaboom in small, digestible bits.
Featured Project: Bike Chaps
This design was actually entered in the Etsy/Instructables Sew Useful contest. These are functional, cheap to make, and sold on Etsy within an hour or so.

the post-nap demands of the day
Published by Kelly Hogaboom on Friday, October 13, 2006 at 3:32 PM.
My son woke up from his nap, ate half his weight in pizza, and then climbed on my lap and insisted I sing him a song. Then another. And another. He sat perfectly still, alternatively staring at the monitor (where my iTunes visualizer swirled) or clinging to my neck with his arms, pressing his cheek to mine to hear my voice. I sang him oldies:
"Be My Baby" by the Ronettes
"Can't Take My Eyes Off Of You" Frankie Vali
"Will you still love Me Tomorrow?" The Shirelles
"Needles and Pins" The Searchers
"Little Red Riding Hood" Sam the Sham and the Pharaohs
"I love you baby! And if it's quite alright I need you baby..."
You know, I honestly can't think of anything I'd rather do.
