Your painting and the inspiration look great together! <br />And I think your journal pages are inspiring.<br /><br />I can relate to your sorting out and the feelings you have about it. It meant a lot to me, to be able to go through all those things my mother had, after her death. Many memories come to your mind in the process.<br /><br />I have often stopped by without commenting, because I didn't know how to express my thoughts. Today I just did it :-)<br /><br />Happy belated PPF!<br /><br />Ilona Ilona Heimböckelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16306179703660083184noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7784126954179412647.post-38401108902882045032013-04-15T11:15:51.816-03:002013-04-15T11:15:51.816-03:00What a beautiful, deeply touching post.

One surprise for me was a tiny piece of recording on a little video recorder I got for him from Goodwill. He was recording me but I didn't know it and he was talking the entire time. What a gift to hear his voice again.<br /><br />Great painting, I love all of the beautiful colors inspired by such a wonderful gift.Deannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03940792415724353081noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7784126954179412647.post-11411787283580085292013-04-13T08:20:30.875-03:002013-04-13T08:20:30.875-03:00Hello Pauline, you've been having a special ti...Hello Pauline, you've been having a special time going through your mothers things, it's so good for you to smile as you come upon some of her things, I can see how that top connected with you! <br />Enjoy your week-end dear friend! xxkathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16048803234989814145noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7784126954179412647.post-45364137463477561332013-04-13T02:58:27.055-03:002013-04-13T02:58:27.055-03:00Your sons souvenir inspire inspired a wonderful pi...Your sons souvenir inspire inspired a wonderful piece of work.
