Update 11-27-11

Yes.  It has been a year and a half since I got this thing and I'm still at it.  I just have to say that I'm so appreciative to have a husband that doesn't mind me taking up an entire bedroom of our home and that he has shown patience with me while trying to get it done.  Life is busy so sometimes a month goes by without me even looking at it.  Then when I actually get to sit down to it for awhile I have to reacquaint myself with the pieces and textures.  I just wish that I'd be able to make continual steps forward instead of three steps forward, one step back.  Let me explain......



THE PROBLEM:
 Woke up to a huge mess on the floor and here are pieces picked up off the floor and piled back on the right board - These were all put together last night.  There was another whole board full of pieces of birds and butterflies that was completely emptied, but most of those just landed in a big pile/mess on the table.

THE CULPRIT: 
Three month old Princess Leia in all her glory.  She just woke up and is giving me the evil eye.  Guess beauty doesn't come from sleep after all.  At least for princesses.  Couldn't find her twin accomplice, Luke.  I hope he was cowering somewhere with shame.

THE UPDATE:
Got some more done in the past few months.  I have the room set up so I can get larger portions together.  At least the broken pieces will be easy to put back together since it's all balloons.  

THE SOLUTION:
LOCK THE BEDROOM DOOR, DUH!
Locks are amazingly effective at keeping out animals AND children.  
 



THE MORAL:
It's funny that this puzzle called, "LIFE" can so represent our lives sometimes.   A huge puzzle that we hope we can get through with ease.  But sometimes steps forward include steps backwards.  I just pray I have the patience to redo what's been undone.

ENJOY!
