Our little artist has been taking art class for two years. Each week she runs in with a smile and then runs out with a work of art in hand. She's loved every creative moment of it. The classes don't end with recitals or banquets, so we wait for a grandparent to be in town to host art galleries.
A couple weeks ago, Grandma was here,
so we strung some string and hung some art and sent out invites.
Every corner of our porch held masterpieces of beauty or whimsy.
Being the fancy gallery that it was, we offered lots of finger food.
As we hung art pieces, prepped food and played some classical music,

the artist BEAMED.
When the gallery was set, we opened for guests.
Grandma and Aunt Jen
came to stroll through, ask questions, and ooh and aah.

Much to her delight and surprise, they even made purchases.
Two of our smallest gallery guests could also be found sniffing around the snack table.

A clear reminder to always celebrate, fuss and to say yes as often as possible to the dreams of a little girl.
