Happy Thanksgiving: Sketchbook

Wishing you all the best on this Thanksgiving Day. May your bellies, tables, and hearts be full. I'm so thankful for my family, health, home, friends, work, and picture books (of course!).

If you see Man Turkey today, send him to my house. I'd like to give him some tail feathers sometime - so he actually LOOKS like a turkey. ;)

Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanksgiving!
The above is a card my son and I made for his dear cousin. Today I am thankful for things big and little: my family, friends, health, home, my work, construction paper, tracing-hand turkeys, time to spend with my little son making art together.
Wherever you are, whatever you are eating, and whomever you are with, I hope you are happy, healthy, and thankful for all that makes you smile.
Gobble gobble!!!!

Being Thankful

This is the most beautiful TV ad ever. I don't know how many times I've watched it, but I laugh and cry every single time. A little something to get you into that holiday spirit and to remind ourselves of the beautiful and important things in life.

This Thanksgiving we have to be thankful for many things.

I know I am very thankful first of all for my husband and kids. They are my biggest joy and inspiration and for all my family and loved ones good health.

I'm also thankful for my wonderful friends and online buddies. It's a lovely community filled with creative, supportive and sensitive people. I love that.

I'm thankful for the publishing industry. For making beautiful children's books that help spark those little minds. I wouldn't be making a living if it weren't for them and I wouldn't feel as happy and complete as I do now.

And of course, I'm thankful for my PBJunkies. What would I do without them?

I'm also thankful for my dogs wet kisses, and coffee.. and chocolate.

Oh, and air conditioning!

Ok, that's it, I promise. :o)

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
