It's no secret that I've been in a creative slump ever since Andrew was born. This kid has messed with my hormones, emotions, muscle tone...you name it! He has also nearly zapped my creativity, although I did write a poem that totally rocked recently (if I do say so myself). I used to troll the web for tutorials for new projects and tackle them with wild abandon. I made
stuffed elephants by hand, for crying out loud! But, alas, the only thing I have made in the last year and a half is a mess in my kitchen. But that might be ending.

Any other mamas of boys out there looking for some inspiration? Look no farther!
