What a lovely tribute to Daddy and me! You are the living embodiment of all we wanted for you~that you would live a life filled with beauty and love. We didn't know how that would manifest, but that was the dream. I have the best picture of you, Micah and Ben in the Coconut Grove house busily at work on an art project. We didn't have much money then, but there was always enough for crayons, paper, and those little watercolor sets. I was a mama who made my own patchwork dresses and curtains for the windows. Daddy made a kid mobile, a see-saw, a tree swing and a golden pyramid for the garden, and later the most magnificent Amanita muscaria mushroom mailbox on the planet! When you were a newborn, you were wrapped in a quilt made by my hands and wore tiny gowns that I embroidered with hearts and stars. When you were little Daddy and I were always busy making things or growing things! You grew up surrounded by creativity, that's true. You and your sister and brothers are our reward. C-Boo my girl!
