Thank you Doug! It means so much you have read some of my writings! Hope this finds you and your beautiful family doing well. Sending you a big hug! ox
Thank you 🙏🏻 Funny how God writes our stories and if we dare, if we're listening... we tell them someday and hope that just one person, one family member, one friend or stranger, might feel a deep connection. ox
“ We often carry far more pain than our kids would ever know about. To them we fought. We fought like exhausted children in adult uniforms. We had it all inside the four walls. Overwhelmingly blessed.” 👈🏼 Brought me to tears. 😭 This story was so beautiful!
Oh Jannette! You're here! Yay! I'm so excited for your journey 🙏🏻 Thank you for reading this and yes... we do need to meet someday. Sending you my love. ox
Thank you so much Jenn. I thought of you so much when I was writing. Art is such a saving grace and without my work I would have crumpled. As it was, I did. We left. Then what was ahead was far more unforeseen pain. Time and time again I came back to the art. To that painting. ox
Good, meaningful art can be such a balm for what ails us. You went through so much, I am glad this painting was by your side to inspire and heal, and remind you that there is still beauty and goodness in the world. Thank you for thinking of me ❤️
I love how you said "balm for what ails us." Funny how only recently one of my kids said, "so tell me the story of that painting again? I don't remember."
I missed this and it's such a GREAT idea! That is definitely something I will do! Thank you Jenn and hope you're enjoying your Sunday or St. Patrick's Day! ox
Oh, that’s lovely to be able to share the story with your child, who will pass on the story and the painting to your grandchildren someday, and it will live forever that way like the oral traditions of old.
Great writing always Debbie!

Hey, how are feeling?
Love this post btw.
I know I p.m.'d you but also thank you for reading Alexander.
Beautiful story and beautiful photos, Deborah.
Thank you Mark. Art has truly been a saving grace. That and music. (and the pictures of course) ✨
Oh, what a beautiful story and a beautiful painting. So lovely, as are all the light and love filled photos you’ve shared here.

The trail was a wonderful bonus to the beautiful home that John built. Pity you couldn't choose your neighbors.

Thank you Jenn ✨
Perhaps you should write the story out and tuck it behind the picture so the meaning and importance always stay with it ☺️

You too! I hope you had a great day!
