Your characters ...You are a wonderful illustrator. Your characters are wonderful and it may be late, but congratulations on your new job. <BR/><BR/>I have children grown and married, no grandkids. It seems like today children want to grow up faster than they should and the media markets to them. Unfortunately it has been going on for a very long time. I can remember when my children had to have the "designer" clothers and those special "gym shoes" and when can I wear makeup. They couldn't wait for their drivers license and was that beer on their breaths? I think its a natural way of life, they are really imitating their parents. We hold the key to their lives as well as our own. Hold on to them tight, they are young for a little while and old forever.<BR/><BR/>Sorry for the "sermon", really like your illo.<BR/><BR/>Babe:>Babe in the Woodshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02967595654094910663noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19637453.post-1156791084089014582006-08-28T14:51:00.000-04:002006-08-28T14:51:00.000-04:00Love the illo!

I guess that's why we feel like we're growing old so much faster coz we don't get to take a break to smell the flowers...... Maybe I should listen to my own advise :DAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19637453.post-1156779764335773092006-08-28T11:42:00.000-04:002006-08-28T11:42:00.000-04:00yeah, i'm not fond of being grown-ups too :-) love...yeah, i'm not fond of being grown-ups too :-) lovely illo, i like the running dog.ELLA ELVIANAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14808894142431270722noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19637453.post-1156778578250053372006-08-28T11:22:00.000-04:002006-08-28T11:22:00.000-04:00very true,it's definitely pretty hard to slow down...very true,it's definitely pretty hard to slow down our busy life style...and kids are so sensible...cute and lovely illustrations!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19637453.post-1156773797626993332006-08-28T10:03:00.000-04:002006-08-28T10:03:00.000-04:00Nice illustration and write up.

He really wants to be bigger.<BR/><BR/>I keep telling myself that it is slower outside of the big city, but I don't really believe it myself.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19637453.post-1156770271624991422006-08-28T09:04:00.000-04:002006-08-28T09:04:00.000-04:00Great illo...very cute!Great illo...very cute!Michelle Lanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03471736068856651792noreply@blogger.com
