Christina showed me an Instagram reel she saw for an art project and wanted to do it. It’s like a paper mache mobile, but instead of paper, it uses string. I have never done anything like this, but I am always up for a challenge, so we did some research online, went to Michael’s, and she went to work. The prototype is drying – we’ll see how it worked in a day or two before we go ahead and do the rest. I’m impressed and proud of her for giving this a shot, even though we have no idea what we’re doing. These are the best projects, especially when they work out, even more especially when they don’t the first four or five times you try, because each of those times you learn something and then when you finally get it, you’re even more proud of it. We’ll see if Christina shares that attitude with me. I may end up taking it over if she gives up because… I’m me and I can’t stand giving up. Looking forward to seeing how this one goes.
