My daughter, the artist.....

The last few weekends before school finished, I often found Abby labouring over her art homework...

at times it frustrated me, to see her so having so much to complete......and I need to point out, that any art talent my children have, did NOT come from me.... if I can't use a ruler, I don't draw!!

so to see my children even TAKING art, does my heart good ... though I often utter the age old phrase... " better you than me! "

This year, when Fathers day came, Abby told me that her gift was something she'd been working on in art class, but wasn't finished...

I've been gone since just after Father's day, and only got to come home last night to get my fathers day gift...

and just so you know, it was worth the wait!!

Abby combined her two loves... hockey and art... no wait. Hockey and DADDY!!!
Here's what she made me.......

..................to start, here's the Fathers Day card......
