These whimsical birds just make me smile!

    Dear Friend, thank you so much for the treat you left for me on your blog (I will diving into it over the week-end):)

    What makes me smile today?

    Reading all the sweet, encourging words that my Blog Friends have left me over the week. Just to know that people I have never met, have taken the time from their busy day to let me know I'm not alone and to keep moving.

    Have a great week-end! Blessings HHL.

    I CANNOT believe this is your quote today. I was thumbing through my notebook (where I have written down quotes I like) yesterday, trying to find the right ones to pair with some of my blog posts and I couldn't stop thinking about this one. I WOKE UP thinking about it and here it is again. Now, I'm going to think about it being here as well. My mind will be very busy today.

    the brilliantly shining and inspirational sunlight that is currently flooding my studio! makes me want to create!

    and yes, I pretty much work on something each day...and when I have nothing new to show, i go to the vault, and pull out some older works of art to show off...from before my blogging days.

    thanks for coming by!

    A wonderful art class this morning with two inspiring women, sunshine, a call from my daughter, the thought of seeing my son this weekend and watching my nephew play baseball (go U.VA.) My heart is full!

    Denalee! Thanks for stopping by my blog! But if you think I'm so adorable, why aren't you following me already?! Sheesh.

    That bird poem/quote reminded me of this poem by my late great grandmother Irene Palo. Enjoy:

    Little birdie in the sky
    dropping whitewash in my eye.
    But I not sad
    I not cry,
    I just glad that cows don't fly.

    xoxo,
    ~Olivia

    My smile is currently lacking. These storms are so bad they're freaking me out! But prior to this my balcony flower garden had me beaming.
