Motherhood

You have to watch this video until the very end. I'll know if you don't and I'll hunt you down and show up on your front porch, laptop in hand. I'll shove my foot in your door and I'll sing loudly and off-key until you acquiesce and watch the entire video. Okay, so maybe I won't really come to your house. Unless you live someplace warm... What? It's getting cold in Chicago!

But really, I got this idea from a video I watched at the Books and Such retreat last week. I thought it was SO cool, I had to make my own version.



Thank you to Eric for figuring out how I could do this. You rock!

I saw the one about it being the end of humanity. It's amazing that you were able to do the same idea making it negative if read straight down, but extremely positive if read back up.Great job!!
