Please allow me to introduce myself and the major players in my family unit:
This is me! I spend my days as a wife and mother primarily, and strive to be successful as a freelance artist. I am a perfectionist who becomes easily frustrated and I can be overly critical. I am notorious for having a multitude of unfinished projects all under construction at one time, and I am often guilty of becoming so engrossed in an idea that it verges on maniacal. It is during these times that I am very thankful for my husband who is very laid back, easy going and all around the governor for my overstimulated machine of a brain.
Meet my husband, I have always called him Mister, as a nickname, so I believe that this will be his online pseudonym. He is kind, hardworking, and gregarious. We have two children, a daughter and son.
The Dreamer, our 6 year old daughter, is just that, a little girl who cannot exit her fantasy world of imagination for any reason whatsoever. She dances through life with her head in the clouds, always imagining she is some type of whimsical entity oblivious to the goings on in her physical environment. Her unwillingness to exist outside of her own fictional paradise can be very aggravating when it comes to the practical demands of reality. Many of these collisions with reality are brought upon her by her 2 year old brother.
The Caveman, is our son. He is his own compacted ball of fury and fire. Every activity he engages in, be it constructive, playful, or even violent, is approached with an all or nothing attitude. He is an interesting creature, who can be shy and quiet, patient (for a toddler) and respectful of others, but also possesses and aggressive hunger for learning and attempting. He is rarely deterred by failure and is stubborn and determined. These traits make him a lovable disaster.
This is my family! I hope you enjoy hearing about our everyday lives as we march off in pursuit of fun always seeking small adventures such as those found by searching for earthworms...
