A Family Portrait.

Let me tell you something. 


Audrey REALLY wanted to draw her family the other night. 
She said it was very important that I sit down next to her, and listen while she draws (and explains) everyone in the family. 

This was her final masterpiece: 





You better believe she started with Daddy.
(Total Daddy's girl.)



She explained, 
"he's different, and really, really tall... So, we'll make him red."
.
.
.

Daddy was followed by her "angel" cousin, Ian. 
Note the halo.



"Of course, I'm next to Ian," Audrey said.



"And, how do you like my pigtails, Mama?"




Next up, Uncle Jason!


Who apparently has two heads. 
"And, a really long beard," Audrey said as she drew vertical lines from his face(s).

.
.
.

"Ok Audrey, who's next?" I asked.
Stephanie, of course!



"She's little."

.
.
.




"Ok Mommy, you're next!"
(geez, finally)
"You have long, long hair, and I didn't forget your pretty shoes! Look Mama!!"
(ok, forgiven)

.....................




"Cole's kinda crazy," Audrey said. "Look at his wild hair!"


Of course there's Uncle Mato, "he's taller than Aunt Amy".

"Oops, I can't forget Ronan!!"



Next up were Grandmas.... 
"Buddy's Grandma wears sweaters."


And, the Grandpas....
"Ian/Cole's Grandpa wears sweaters too."


.
.
.

And, last but not least, Jesse & Buddy!!!

Thinking about this beautiful family today...
