New Thing Number Twenty-Six

I made a book. From scratch. On Adobe Illustrator. Which I learned how to use two days previously.

Needless to say, it took awhile.

But it looks awesome. It came off the press as a softcover book that actually looks like it could be found in stores. It's a 30-page "illustrated" (that means there are pictures) book for my mommy for Mother's Day, and my little brother and I (my brother became my official picture looker-upper) were too excited to wait until Mother's Day, so we gave it to her yesterday. She flipped through the first few pages, thinking it was some cutesy thing we found at a store. Then she got to page eight, the first page that couldn't POSSIBLY have been printed for retail purposes (unless someone held a stalkerish fascination with my family). Cue the floodgates. 

It was awesome. :)
