In so many ways, I am incredibly fortunate.  For instance, I have kids that live in my neighborhood, and since they found that I’m a potter, I often get impromptu “assistants” showing up in my show, or my doorbell rings followed by the question, “Can we play with clay?”. This is a double bonus for me, because when I make things like this, I can always say, “Oh, yeah, the kids came over, and we all made frogs”.  Who will even know if it was really the neighborhood kids, or just my inner child taking over!  About three inches tall.
