Would that be pram moms down under? There are days that my store is filled to capacity with strollers, children and moms. Young women, coupon in hand, looking to economically outfit themselves for a soccer game or the PTA. I am always encouraged by this. My own daughter is definitely following this path as she prepares for her son's arrival. Yes, a boy! This will be a new venture indeed. I'm thinking along the lines of like grandmother, like grandson as I make room for a crib in my studio!
Clara - Wonderful news! Now you can become a nanny COGGER, a NOGGER!!! I am already a nonna of three with the count between G and myself being 12. My daughter also is looking forward to this path down the track if all goes well. I, too, find it encouraging to see all the proud mums pushing prams. Perhaps they will be more dare I say, 'successful' at marriage than our generation, without the history of the women's movement. I do ask myself how did this influence my expectations, and how did we expect the guys to catch up with us, given their conditioning.
I found a piece I wrote on Success (very subjective word)- will post it tomorrow. I did it!!!! First of many videos - I love them - they make me happy and I feel clever and successful.
Cheers Clara
Welcome to my journey as I photograph something I create everyday for a year... RRTClara's Cat
Hi, what's your name? I like your neckpiece.
Hope Springs Eternal...March 13thThis may not look very hopeful, but for me it is like the first daffodil of spring. My stone cat has only recently emerged from his four month hibernation under three feet of snow. I adorned him with a neckpiece of faux amber, glass and brass beads with a pendant made from a vintage button my mother gave me.

NOGGING,I love that. I will add it to my log of COGS. You realize there is no end to this COGGING. We have created a mobius, a continuous strand that has no beginning or end but has a unique twist to it. Perhaps the women's movement was more successful in creating liberated sons than daughters. Perhaps that is why young women today will be more successful in their marriages, and perhaps they will not even know why.

ps...that does it, you did it and I want to do it too! I love your video and of course the music. Also love the new look of the Granny Blog, very sophisticated.
