Scarlett, this is very sweet. A simple image filled with love and colour. Are you familiar with 'The Education of Little Tree' - The Story of a Cherokee Boyhood by Forrest Carter? One of my favourite books of all time and I heartily recommend it. love, Allie xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Lovely penning, Scarlett! Kind of reminds me of Dolly's song, 'Coat of Many Colors.' Family values sing strong and true, great job!
