Pondering all this sweet and beautiful and very whimsical!! Someone very special, whom I love vey much, helped me in my greatest time of need. She didn't judge me, but loved me and helped me more than she will ever really know. I will always be grateful to her because people like her don't come into your life everyday. She is more precious than gold and sweeter then honey from a honey comb. We don't speak or email everyday. We don't do lunch every week. We don't even send each others birthday cards or anything, but she is family. My sister from another mother. Thinking of you today with so much appreciation and more love then one heart can hold.

Vee, I adore love and am smitten by this illustration. It says community in so many ways. The piggy house cracks me up . Maybe it's not a piggy house to you at all, but that is an angry birds piggy face if ever there was one :-)

In your own style, this also reminds me of the work of two of our blog mates: Valerie Walsh and Bella Sinclair . The commonality are spaces and places we can live and thrive and giggle. How are you getting so many ill is done? !

As for your sister 's gift, that you recognize it so deeply is probably your gift back to her. Love works that way, doesn't it, vee?

Love love

Oh I adore this delightful illustration so much so that I wish I could dive into it's cheery depths and live there. ^_^ Such a joy to hear that you have someone in your life to always lift you up and comfort you. All that love you have for her is a gift right back...a gift from the heart. Much love and hugs to you. <3
