Finally got the banner picture added last night, David doing the work and me directing over his shoulder. We couldn't figure out why the picture didn't want to load. Maybe it had something to do with the fact that this is our second blog, and TypePad was a bit confused? Who knows. It works now, and I'm pretty happy with the results -- although the perfectionist in me wishes that the margins in the text box could be improved a bit....
The painting is "Virginia Woolf Knitting" by her sister Vanessa Bell, circa 1912. I can't seem to make two "About" pages, so I won't be able to credit the picture properly until we come home from Hong Kong, and aren't using the page for our family blog any more. (The copyright of this image is held by the National Portrait Gallery (London), and its reproduction here is in no way intended to profit from said copyright.)
This from Julia, age three, home sick from school with a cold this morning: "Mommy, are you doing enealogy [genealogy]?" "No, I'm blogging. That's a funny word, isn't it." "It is a funny word."
oh i love that painting! I've never seen it before. Looks great on your blog.
And yes, blogging is a funny word.
