South Korean artist Park Seoung repaints and stylizes dolls to resemble celebrities and pop culture icons.

In light of this weekend’s 86th Academy Awards, I wanted to share with you this poster by Media Run.

Mine hails from last […]
Because Sharing is Caring [Memos from Nick Fury]
Last week, both kids received their flu vaccines…and they’ve been coughing since. Claire seems to be holding up pretty well, but Aerin’s dry cough turned into phlegm-y, hacking fits which progressed to a fever. And with her surgery date so close, the doctor advised us to keep an extra watch on her. Like most kids, […]

The Anatomy of Being Cute
I wouldn’t necessarily characterize myself as being cute, but now I’m wondering if this is one of the reasons I’m always mistaken as being younger: large head, high forehead, small nose and mouth, a stubby neck, and short arms and legs with small hands and feet. For more commentary on how and why humans perceive […]
Superheroes Walking With Their Kids
Today marks the end of Claire’s first full week of preschool. (Last week was a 3-day school week.) While she didn’t cry the first day, she shed some tears every morning after that…until yesterday, that is. She had a perfectly pleasant, tear-free day yesterday and J texted me to let me know that she didn’t […]
