Meet "Alien"

See this...this is "Alien". He tragically lost his arms at some point in time. My mother bought him when my brother, sister and I were little, and when she put him out on the counter in the kitchen, we knew not to "mess with Mama"! It was her nonverbal way of letting us know she was having a bad day. She is so creative. Well...a few years ago she passed him down to me. I guess she knew I would need him....and I so do. I wonder if the grape my siblings and I put inside him years ago is still there...Good memories...

That is a brilliant idea. I am seriously going to get myself an alien.

What a great idea! Sure it works way better than yelling! :)

Love it! What a creative way to say "leave me the hell alone!" Muuuch better than just yelling!

Oh, and you might want to check out my blog, my friend! ;-)

You might want to make some new aliens and start selling 'em on etsy. I bet you'd make a killing! What a smart mama. Now I see where you get it!

Renee said...

Dawn said...
