a two-day long spring rain {which was a snow storm everywhere else surrounding us} resulted in some pretty awesome mud puddles, perfect for little boys to play in.
Speaking of earthly delights, our community had an Earth Day celebration yesterday in conjunction with the Lyons Community Montessori and the Green Heart Institute. Remember when I asked for suggestions on the leaf-cutter ant costume? Well, my letterpress friend planted a little seed mentioning japanese paper lanterns, and voila, here he is making his entrance on to the stage of the Great Kapok Tree performance.

and here I am setting up the BirdDog Press booth in support of the community, the montessori school, the Green Heart Institute and the earth. oh, and I’m also demonstrating the leaf-cutter ant walk. We sold several of our new Animal Fair : Moo collection which consists of 7 notecards featuring farm animals : chicken, cow, goat, sheep, donkey, pig & bees. It was a Zero Waste event and the sun came out to shine.

Cullin is going to be in his first play/performance! In celebration of Earth Day, Lyons Community Montessori has a community event each year in conjunction with the Green Heart Institute, and BirdDog Press is participating with a booth to help support the school. There is a big garage sale, music, crafts and the class does a little rainforest performance in which my little one has chosen to be a Leaf-Cutter Ant. Anyone have suggestions on how to create an ant costume before Sunday?

Okay, worries are over for the time being. I have entered my calm submissive state. The show must go on.
Today is Earth Day. One of my favorite days of the year next to loved ones’ birthdays and Halloween. Today I will be sending my friend some foxy cards that I printed on the BirdDog Press like this one in honor of her son who left this earth nearly a year ago. They are planting a beautiful garden in Cash’s name at the Children’s Hospital in Denver. One may remember a poster I designed for his benefit concert earlier this year on his birthday. Cash is an angel watching over his Mommy and Daddy these days – often appearing as a curious fox on an evening run near their house. His foxy spirit will always be with us.
