Valentina Harper said...

Your daughter sounds like a super awesome girl :) Yes, I can smell spring.
Happy March!

I adore how she's swinging/hanging/dancing with the sun! And that bejeweled dress! Or are those all the beautiful pieces that make up the sum of her? LOVE!

chrissy said...

there is something in me waiting to burst too!
(last week it was the button on my pants...)
smart child.
i love the innocent comments they make.
my most recent one was this...
"mom...how do you hotwire a car?"
i.m thinking you are on a more upstanding track with your dear son than i am at the moment.
im gonna work on that.
LOVE your last two pieces.
how did i miss the cherry tree?
do you actually HAVE a cherry tree?
i wonder if k.t. has a cherry tree.
wonders!
they.re good for us.

Definitely! No visible signs of Spring here yet (although we did have some sunshine today) but I feel her stirring... yay!

Every time I see one of your new drawings I think that it's my favourite, until I see the next one... So now I've given up on that and am just going to LOVE them all!

I really love this one! And I'm excited to hear that you opened an ETSY shop. I've been thinking of doing the same. Was it easy?
