she was paying attention after all

my daughter sent this to me from palo alto. you always wonder whether anything you’re doing really rubs off on your kids, or whether they are simply the product of the workings of genetics. after six years of still blog i would have said that she supported what i was doing, was maybe vaguely proud of a mom who had forged a mid-life artistic career, and sometimes loved, sometimes hated our occasional creative collaborations. but yesterday my girl noticed a white sky, and knew right away what to do with it. today’s still blog honors her generosity in sharing a still blog moment with me from halfway across the continent.
