Gratitude

I so appreciate your sweet comments about my new adventures in blogging. Thank you, too, for your thoughts regarding my template and banner efforts. It's exciting to learn what you can do with a free download of Paint.Net and a cache of random, public domain, clip art images! I am also enjoying playing with my digital camera again. I turn the dials (with no clear direction) and sometimes get lucky enough to snap a photo worth posting. Each layer used to create the header is a symbolic representation of someone special to me, or of a cherished memory. While you see an artistic banner ~ I see a childhood, a mother and father, a spring garden with grandparents...and I can even hear a bit of piano music playing from years ago. (Yes, the imagery is even there for that as well.) I hope you, too, find a way to capture all that you love, so that someday when these pass from your presence or simply fade away, some small memory will linger...and bring a smile to your heart.

  2. Your blog looks great. Blogger is my favorite and easiest blog site to use. I have a family one that my boys keep in touch with me on. I have also used them in the classroom. Way to go!
