Years in the making

I am posting this for those people who might read this blog and think I have it all together. Or even a little bit together. I have nothing together.

My children made this cute fish project. Five years ago. FIVE. YEARS. AGO.  

At the time I put them carefully in a folder because my  idea was to hang them in the bathroom. At the time we had this ugly little upstairs bathroom that the kids used. 

I came across the folder while cleaning off my desk last week.

I never blogged the craft but there is a complete explanation here at Our Domestic Church. 

So when I found the pictures I remembered that Elizabeth Foss had hung them up in her bathroom. She even had a cute fish shower curtain. I didn't actually remember the shower curtain but I was wondering if I was channeling Elizabeth when I picked the color for the new bathroom.  

So I ordered some new frames from Amazon. The cheapest ones I could find. I have to say they really are very nice and came packaged so well I could have dropped them off the roof and they would not have broken.

This morning I hung the fish. FIVE YEARS LATER

The kids were happy to revisit this little bit of their artwork. They were particularly happy because the little dark fish at the top of the second picture was Ryan's.  How nice to have another bit of him in the house.

So now you all know. I am currently somewhere about 4.5 years behind in project completion.
