When my granddaughter, Lucy was born, Judy gave me a “Grandmother-book” to write about events in my life as a keep-sake for my granddaughter. I thought it was a good idea, but writing has never been my first choice of expression. So I decided to draw stories & vignettes of my life for Lucy.
Some of my earliest memories:
I lived in Chicago until I was almost 5, so I got to play in the snow.
I had my tonsils out, and “had” to go on an ice cream diet. Back then the flavors were limited. choc chip now ( or Vanilla Swiss Almond from Haagen-Dax’s
We moved from Chicago, Illinois to Phoenix, Arizona when I was 5, so now I played in the sprinklers instead of snow.
I loved horses and drew them all the time. I got a real horse, Misty, when I was 10.
