My New Graduation Baby


Yes, you heard that right. I got a new baby for graduation and he is plush, has hooves and horns and is oh so very cute. Here is a picture taken by Prissy (I was not in the mood for having my picture taken yesterday and Prissy very kindly refrained from photographing me, so the party photos are limited to this guy;)). He's quite large (bigger than my cats) and very true to life. He is sitting on my drafting table right now making me smile and is sure to be a source of inspiration. I'm very glad that Julia was able to part with him as she and her husband had become quite attached to him. I very much enjoyed my break room graduation party and it was very sweet of my co-workers to do that for me. Since I finished school mid-December, it sort of got lost in the shuffle of the holidays, so it was very nice to celebrate now.

I will probably post a drawing by the end of the day as I'm sitting at home waiting for my pencils to be delivered. And there is no excuse not to draw when one is sitting at home waiting for pencils...

Hi Anne,

Again, congratulations on your graduation. I'm so glad they had a party for you....you deserve one! Your baby rhino is adorable and I bet oh so cuddly. Do you have a name for him/her yet? Julia is such a sweetheart to give him/her to you. I hope someone gives her a baby elephant because I know she loves them....maybe she already has one. Can't we talk her into joining our blog? I miss her posts. Am certainly thankful though for you, JB, and Prissy. Scooter Lady needs to start blogging too. Take care and stay warm....I agree with your previous post....it's too darn cold!

This is an amazing rhino! Congratulations on your new baby and your new degree. Hope your pencils arrived safely and I will look forward to seeing drawings of the new baby by the new pencil.
