I rediscovered an album I used to play constantly when Arlo was a baby: Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots by The Flaming Lips. Had a small epiphany at these lyrics. It could be the only song to have on my ipod, ever.

Beautiful, and thanks for the link! I haven’t listened to much else by them, apart from my favourite and quite ridiculous ‘Vaseline’ 🙂 I bet this brought back lovely baby memories too xx

I have always loved Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots, Pt. 1. I also like the song you mention and ‘Vaseline’ (She Don’t Use Jelly) mentioned above. I’m going to listen to all three now.

I just found your blog through your guest post on Felicia’s blog. I haven’t been able to stop clicking back through your archives marvelling at your beautiful embroidery. Now I know this is the blog for me… you see, I have two daughters, one has the middle name of Yoshimi. 😉 Linda.
