When Our Kids Surprise Us



My daughter sent me the above photograph taken during her weekend drive through the back roads of Indiana last week. She knows I love barns and it appears this may have rubbed off on her. With such excitement from the side of the road she called just to share that she and her fellow travelers pulled over to take pictures of “this amazing barn!!” She then asked if I would please paint it for her. 

Some days the smile on a mother’s face lingers long after the calls with her grown children end.

Brush on,
