Emily freehanded this animation sequence this morning, without even using a light table!

Last September, my cousin Amanda married her longtime sweetheart Kirk.  It was a beautiful wedding, and Emily was lucky enough to catch part of the bouquet.  (She’s too young guys, so back off!)  Here’s a little story she wrote about it.

In her own words:

A Word About My Rose

I once had a rose.  It was a beautiful red rose.  The stem was a beautiful shade of green.  I got it at a wedding.  The bride threw the rose and I caught it.  The next day it looked wilted.  The petals started falling off.  I was very sad.  I asked my mom if there was any way I could save it.  She said no. Then I got the idea of writing this story.

Another story about a spider, this one written back in June.  (You wouldn’t know it, but she’s actually afraid of spiders!)  Thanks to Grandma for the pictures!

I got home from the hospital today (gall bladder surgery, ugh), and found this sweet note waiting for me on the white board.  Thanks, Emily!

Emily wrote this story on a 3×5 card while we were having lunch with our friend Kyu at Teri Cafe.

Emily was being cranky one day, and posted this on her bedroom door. I like how she drew me with an oblivious smile on my face.
