Lauryn and Kaylin

Remember the jigsaw I sent to Kaylin? Well, It was a poor choice. Here is Kaylin recalling the traumatic gift:

Thankfully, I didn't ruin jigsaws for her; here she is playing with Lauryn. They are the best of friends. Kaylin was in tears parting from her cousin.

Today is Sunday, and I am in the studio catching up on orders. It's nice to be back, but I had such a wonderful time in Ireland. My mom's birthday celebration was lovely, as was Aaron's confirmation. Here are a couple of shots from the latter. It's shameful I didn't get any photo of the boy himself in his new outfit, but Liz and Dave - his own parents - didn't either!

Dad and Eric at the church, and a couple of shots from the inevitable trip to the pub after the holy sacrament.

this is an odd time to finally go from long-time lurking to commenting (hi, i adore your work and find your stories very entertaining), but the jigsaw video just killed me. i thought it sounded like the best present ever back when you posted about it!
