Grandaughter Visit
Our youngest Grandchild spent the weekend with us in New York City - we don't see her nearly enough, so it was our first opportunity to see her walking. On Saturday morning her sneakers and my son's sneakers were next to each other, requiring a quick sketch and journal page.
She played wonderfully by herself when all of her cousins weren't surrounding her in a whirlwind. The wooden peg set that we bought in Zurich and that her father loved as a child was the biggest hit. My son took a photo of her squatting, and carefully placing two pegs back into the board!

Love the sneakers. You caught that perfect balance that only a little one seems to possess. Lovely.

Sweet that you caught little Annabelle's perfect little pose, and your capture of her concentration is marvelous. Love your text around your lovely shoe drawing too!

Great fast action on the sneakers because it'd make a great picture like it does! :) The baby's adorable!

Annabelle is delightful, you have really captured the "balance" of her pose - not easy. And congratulations! The face is so well done!

As a father I have to say I just love the journal page with the sneakers!
