She wore sunlight in her hair

We've been busy around here lately...
drawing, skipping, hiking and eating lots of ice cream.



I took advantage of vacation to practice sketching and my little niece gladly obliged.
I was really delighted with how the picture turned out - thanks to a little girl who loves to pose for her aunts (my dogs on the other hand still come out pretty terrible :).

I went hunting for a frame but couldn't find anything I liked so I cut one out of cardboard and covered it in a flannel fabric I had on hand. It now rests on her mama's desk.

  1. My dear darling daughter,

    You make me so lonely for you, and your sisters, and your mother . . . and your brother-in-law . . . and the granddaughter . . . and the grandsons . . . . . . . . . yes, and even the dog!

    Love, Papa

  3. I guess because you were here when you did this and now the precious drawing sits on my desk, I didn't think to leave a comment!

    But thank you, sis, for the wonderful idea and then the time and creative energy you spent making it happen.

    Love you!
