Laughter and Light

I did a photoshoot last week with three of my favorite people.  They are so amazing.  Not only lovely to look at, but beautiful inside.  I adore this photo--and couldn't resist playing with it in photoshop.

Have a gorgeous day--don't forget to spread laughter and joy to everyone you meet!

My Imagination

As you can see--my imagination ran away with me on this day! This is a rare self-portrait from when I was a LOT younger.

DADDY UPDATE: Mumsie says Dad is doing much better. It helps that he's able to take his neck brace off to eat and rest a little more often. This will strengthen his neck muscles and stimulate healing of the broken bones. Thank you so much for your thoughtfulness and prayers. They mean so much to me and my family.

Giraffe Laugh

I created this wise guy of a giraffe, as a Christmas gift for our sweet Mumsie. Mom is just the greatest--she has always loved and collected giraffes. She says because of her height she knows how they feel, and harbors great sympathy and love for them.

Mums is indeed a tall, large-boned woman, but she is willowy and graceful in her movements. To watch her working in the garden with her customary grace is a joy. To see her green eyes sparkling with good humor, and to hear her contagious raucous laughter is to join in with her. I loved seeing how much she enjoyed this Giraffe Laugh.
