First of all, thanks to all of you for participating in yesterday’s excitement. I’m not sure we’ve ever gotten more comments on a single post, and the love on Facebook was just as generous. It makes our march a lot more fun when we’re able to share it with you, so thanks for checking in, for giving us encouragement, and for making this barn a little less lonely than it can sometimes be.

So what to write about on the day after a day of such intrigue? As is so often the case, Robbi has solved the problem without even meaning to.

For the last two nights, just as I’ve been drifting off to the far pastures, Robbi has asked me for drawing prompts. For the last two mornings, I’ve awakened to images in my inbox.

Two nights ago, I gave her “banana head.” (I may have been trying to insult her; I can’t remember now.)

Last night, I mumbled, “false teeth.”

Amazing what a girl can do with an iPad, stylus, and five minutes at the end of a long day.
