This is such a precious read, happy belated to your daughter and congrats on raising such a talented and beautiful soul. I am wishing her the best and also to you, as you celebrate the journey of becoming a supportive and nurturing light for her to reflect that light.
Kudos Mama! You set the intention to do and be better and you're seeing the fruits of that labor. Your daughter's art is so beautiful and I'm glad she has a parent who saw and nurtured that instead of dissuading her from being an artist. Please keep sharing her art and journey with us!
That's exactly what it feels like Ashleigh, that I am reaping the benefits (fruit) that I have been nurturing since my daughter was in my womb. I definitely will keep sharing. Every time I see a new piece I am blown away.
Happy belated birthday to your amazing artist of a daughter! I teach a Scholastics Art and Writing Awards creative writing class; I love that her art has been recognized in so many ways and by so many people.
I know right? It's wild and I promise you, the time goes by fast so savor every moment with River. Thank you! I am so excited about this next chapter for her!
Thank you ! It’s such an emotional journey that I don’t see many people talking about. I appreciate you for reading and commenting
Seems like you have an incredible daughter there! And we sometimes downplay the emotions parent feel when they see their previous babies grow up.
She's so amazing! Yeah it's totally is a bittersweet moment.
