My Fairy In A Jar




I first saw this beautiful piece of art on a blogger friends site, "Feathered Nest". I was very much touched by it's tenderness. You see, some 31 years ago my little 4 month old daughter died, after the battle of a life time. When I look at this young fairy in this bottle I can't help but see my little girl at about 2 years of age.

She sits at eye level on a shelf in front of me and my computer. She will inspire me as I go back 31 years to a time and place, that I now know, was one of the greatest experiences of my life.

You are welcome to follow along as I tell her story. Please join my followers, so I'll know your there. I'm sure I will be inspired to have special little drawings.
