“If you were all alone in the universe with no one to talk to, no one with which to share the beauty of the stars, to laugh with, to touch, what would be your purpose in life? It is other life, it is love, which gives your life meaning. This is harmony. We must discover the joy of each other, the joy of challenge, the joy of growth.” — Mitsugi Saotome
we had our biannual-garden-binge in the weekend:
we *love* this little guy, and we think he looks so cute munching his way along our front path...

I'm just blown away by these! Did you design them too?! Cute, cute,cute!
I'd recognize that muncher any where...too cute!
Those are wonderful! My youngest daughter *loved* The Very Hungry Caterpillar. "But he was still hungry."
Love them!! We love that story here too :)

We LOVE the Hungry Caterpillar too...
My kids love to jump up and say "Pop" when he hatches and much their way through all of the food!!
Just beeeeeooootiful Kate!
I just looked at these again... so fun!!! Did you break the tiles yourself? They fit together so well... I've never done mosaics before. I have some tiles to do a mirror, but it scares me! :)
hello chicks
:o) looks like there's a Global Caterpillar Fan Club out there... YAY for eric carle!!!!!
yes, i did design these myself..
and yes, i broke the tiles up using a hammer. the best way to do this is to sandwich the tile between sheets of newspaper and then *whack* and watch a few shards of tile escape and then get two stuck in your foot..)
i really *should* have neatened the edges of each piece, but as usual, i was rushing a miracle (movie line).
but i like less-than-perfect things, i think they look more kid-friendly.
that's my excuse and i'm sticking to it :o)
