That is too beautiful for words. I hope she puts it in the county fair. My brain is buzzing away trying to figure out how to make a quilt out of it.

Daughter Molly should think about becoming a children's book illustrator/writer. The painting so completely captures the spirit of the words.

OK -- pat yourself on the back and tell yourself what a great job you did raising your daughter. Truly a gift of love. I got a coffee mug with a picture of my 60-yr old husband wearing a Speedo from my daughter. I'm still not sure what kind of gift that was.

Hope you're able to stay inside keeping warm these last few days.
