A Painting A Day

SOLD



The Household is sleeping and I may crawl back to bed...I am still pretty tired. It was a tremendously long day yesterday with folks in and out and Grant's services. There were folks unable to be seated in the chapel that held 250 people...it was a grand celebration of his life. Darci from DOUBLE HP Horse rescue emailed last night ..."Grant" means "gift"...what a treasured thought that was for both Terry and I to go to bed with!

His favorite thing to do was to call 911. Sometimes you would not even know he did it till the police arrived at the door. Talk about panic in your heart. They would come in and have to talk to Grant to see what was wrong and then of course question the poor unsuspecting soul who had not been diligent in watching that Grant was not left alone with the phone. His favorite song this past Christmas was Feliz Navidad and he really rocked to the beat. His favorite stuffed toy was NO cat given to him by his great grandmother... So many memories and so much joy from one child...we were all touched by his beauty.

The painting today starts off my summer highway sunflower series....It was quite popular last year and I paint sunflowers in a variety of styles and sizes from photos I take along the sides of the roads here in Texas. This is a thickly painted palette knife piece that is bright but even in contrast. Very harmonious energy.

Grace to all, I am heading back to bed to catch a few more hours of sleep....it remains quite as visitors are all still snoozing and the dogs are as well!

The Thought:  Our youngest daughter is still very ill.   I am pumping her full of fruit and juices, mucinex and tylenol etc but it is not a positive thing right now. Does not look like we will make my older daughter's house for Thanksgiving.  I am sad because there will be new family to be attending along with everyone that has NOT been together since the dea
