Q. Hi Jordan! My godson's first birthday is at the end of the month and I'd like to buy him something special to have/keep/remember. I'm not opposed to spending a little extra since it's his first birthday. Do you have any suggestions?

A. I not only have "a" suggestion...I have the suggestion!

Above, Meg Allan Cole's how-to for a super easy, customizable (and fast!) DIY gift that's perfect for a new mama: a DIY Growth Chart (with optional felt appliques).
Actually, kind of a sickly yellow-gray-purple, and weirdly bright for that time of night thanks to the reflections of the city lights.
How do I know this?
Because I see it Every. Single. Night.
I've always had a night wakefulness problem - around 2 or 3 is usually when it happens; it's called "habitual awakening" (where it's become such a pattern that my mind actually wakes itself up regardless of external circumstances) - but last night was something special.
