I have not always loved the cartoon shape of a heart.
But I found this for sale on Etsy

And then I saw this:
and I decided that the heart shape is growing on me. It doesn't look anything like an actual human heart, but a real human heart isn't all that cute. Which is probably the reason someone invented the heart shape we usually see.
Although this one is sweet in a different kind of way:
Just for fun, do an "anatomical heart" search on Etsy. It is amazing that all of those things have been made.

I don't think these two were made with

I have to confess that I don't have new pictures of Will here because I can't find our camera. Tonight at dinner he mouthed a tiny kosher dill pickle for a very long time and then licked a slice of pepperoni a few times before finishing off with his usual Goldfish (Slammin' Sour Cream and Onion flavor) and cornpuff poppers (Kroger brand Extreme Butter flavor). I was really sad that I couldn't record that moment OR the moment when he walked by himself all the way across our kitchen!! I'll do better soon.
Also, if you are an artist there is a great new site that is, in my opinion, a more exclusive, skilled, and upscale version of Etsy. Check out Across the Earth Emporium by Artisans at www.ateea.com to set up a shop.
And I know I said I was going put all the heart posts up in February, but I have found a lot of things I want to share with other heart families so there will be more posts on that soon.
