November 6 - Penguin

"Enjoy the little things, for one day you may look back and realize they were the big things."

~ Robert Brault

This is the OP. Original penguin.

Today I'm thankful for Holly the Twister Sister.

When I was first learning balloons, I stumbled across Holly's YouTube channel and learned this penguin.

It was the first balloon I ever made in front of a group of kids.  I was just there setting up some balloon art for the book fair, with my kit as paranoia insurance when I handed out the penguin - #1, I suppose, because I turned to find twenty pairs of eyes staring at me like I had all the candy. 

It's also a good reminder that you don't have to overdo things and why I went old school with the image.  Those kids didn't care about the menagerie I'd been practicing - they just wanted penguins.  Only penguins.
