There’s something so pure about children’s art, I love it. I’ve saved a lot from my own kids, their adorable hand-made notes and cards from over the years, as well as many of their doodlings, drawings and select pieces from school.  Their art to me always serve as sweet reminders of love and encouragement and of my place in their heart as much as they are always at the forefront in mine.

I selected these two vintage pieces from my daughter and son to share (and because they’re personal added my touch on top for online purposes.) Their art has lifted my spirits if I’m feeling blue or lifted me higher when feeling sunny. As  a practice, I still rotate a few around the house and keep on display. To them, I’ve always been and will always be most of all, their Mom (angel, rock, teacher, hero, friend, cook, housekeeper, counselor, banker and a hundred other roles/responsibilities over the years) – who just happens to be a singer that some people know!

I love you Lauren and Arie and love being your Mom – young adults now, but always will be my babies!
