It is simply in your head, the way you see what is around you. It is there, unseen to anyone but The Artist, unless they really look.<br />You are so lucky to have those sketches. What a great gift.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3420419511488075050.post-51506630482833439622011-01-13T07:04:24.124-08:002011-01-13T07:04:24.124-08:00what a great way to remember your grandfather.what a great way to remember your grandfather.Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01823862479614209543noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3420419511488075050.post-45301330110620474192011-01-12T17:44:09.174-08:002011-01-12T17:44:09.174-08:00I know exactly what you mean!

It says more about her than any photograph I've ever seen.Melissahttp://www.lifewithsophia.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3420419511488075050.post-18918853858970403982011-01-12T12:27:24.486-08:002011-01-12T12:27:24.486-08:00Aw, I teared up when I read "for my Jenny&quo...Aw, I teared up when I read "for my Jenny"... how special that you have that work done by his own hand to pass down to your children!Bayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12753983720078029954noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3420419511488075050.post-62419724592253652772011-01-12T08:43:01.148-08:002011-01-12T08:43:01.148-08:00What a beautiful post ... you have such a talent f...What a beautiful post ... you have such a talent for painting pictures with your words. Now I know one person from whom you got that artistic talent :-) How lovely to have such a special gift from your grandfather's hand. I have some needlework of my grandmother's that I feel just as strongly about, including a patchwork quilt she made just for me. It's not particularly beautiful, but I know that as she stitched it, she thought of me, and that, as you know, means the world.Amanda Broadfoothttp://www.lifeisaspectrum.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3420419511488075050.post-35753008056216890652011-01-11T20:23:56.720-08:002011-01-11T20:23:56.720-08:00This was beautiful!

I love reading to my kids from books she bought for Caleb when he was just a baby. I read him the inscription every time. I want him to know how much she loved him.Ashleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06481248727957625074noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3420419511488075050.post-29948103204403963192011-01-11T20:03:04.721-08:002011-01-11T20:03:04.721-08:00Kerry - Thanks!
