My mother always read to me as a child. I really believe that bonding time between a parent and child is so important and precious. I have lasting memories of those stories because the experience was special.

Look to the beauty of this day, miracles are all around you.

Not what you do but how you do it, is the test of your capacity.

Life is too short to be safe and sit still and do nothing. Unless of course that is what God has for you to do in a particular place in your life.

I like to draw late at night when the house is quiet.

There are some people who want me and my husband to stay where it is safe and draw a paycheck every week instead of what we are doing (which is creating and sharing our art with others). The truth is that there are people in this world - Dave and I being two - who would die a slow painful death if stuck in an office and made to do the kind of work that we are not made to do.

If you can't change it.. change the way you think about it
