Belly

notes

My schedule has been so hectic lately and I've been living off of large to-do lists. I'm on my way to starting a cute notepad collection though...!

Notebooks from Postalco, Poketo, Anthropologie, Etsy, The Curiosity Shoppe, Etsy, and Paul Smith.

Marlo Meekins

I cannot stop looking at these! She has a huge catalogue of drawings and they're all amazing. Even though her work is very similar to many contemporary illustrators we see everywhere today, there is something special about it. It also reminds me a lot of John Kricfalusi! Get sucked in here and here. I love everything about these!

One of my favorites

“The thing I want to tell her… the thing I want to tell you, Martha, is that you will never fade for me. In the beginning of this book, I mentioned getting older, how the word forty looks spindly and weird. Getting older scares me, too, but I would not trade it for getting younger. Time moves in peculiar ways. Fast and slow at the same time. When I look at you, I don’t see whatever imperfections you see. Our faces are just geography. They tell us the story of who we are and who we used to be. I see you as I have always known you: I see you at twenty-five and thirty and now forty-two. I see you as a little girl camping with your brother and sister, a purple bandanna tied around your head, looking so much like Ruthie does now. I love the story your face tells me because I love you."

I don't know why I haven't found the time to watch this yet!
