Many of you have seen our new little friend Roo pop up in the last few months here on the blog.  Roo is a kangaroo that I commissioned artist Megan Horsch with Kaylee Bug Designs to draw.  I gave some specific ideas such as I knew I wanted a kangaroo and I knew I wanted him to have a classic unique feel, but Megan really brought Roo to life.  She was great to work with, and I adore Roo more than I thought I could.  I chose Roo to be my little children’s portraiture mascot for some very specific reasons.  A friend last Sunday suggested I  share these here.  You see for me Kangaroos are just the sweetest mommies in the Animal world.  The way they hold the Joey’s close to them for the next year I just find amazing.  I wore my son for our first year together and it was the sweetest thing for us to help with our bonding as mother and son.  So in my little way it is a constant reminder our a mother and child’s bond…and thus Roo!  Now I know I have not been too creative with her name.  I am not married to the name Roo it has grown organically in the past few months, but I thought I would throw up a fun little contest

NAME MY ROO!!!

So Folks until Monday at 5:00 PM Mountain Time I will be taking names for Roo.  I will on Tuesday draw a name out of the “hat” to select a winner.  If I PICK a name there will be TWO WINNERS!  One from the hat and the one with Roo’s New name!  What do you win?  Well I thought to make it interesting for EVERYONE from ANY Place – It will be a $20 iTunes Gift Card.  Just a little sumptin’ sumptin’ to let you know how much I love ya all.  So leave a name and get some tunes.  Roo himself he is partial to some Jack Johnson…yummy…oh wait that is me!

Have a great weekend.  My exciting Friday night is with that cute little man and some meatballs…Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs that is.

Toodaloo Kangaroos!
