Family Circle
This canvas was designed for my sister-in-law. She’s the one who somehow manages to keep everything together when our worlds are falling apart. I honestly don’t know how I would have survived the deaths of my daughter or my mother without her! She’s also the one who keeps family traditions alive. Oh, how I do miss her family gatherings—living several states apart makes it difficult to attend them.

Before my mother passed away, my sister-in-law had developed a really nice relationship with her so I felt it only appropriate to incorporate a poem that my mother had given me so many years ago. The photo is of my mother-in-law.
The poem reads:
Our family is a circle of love…
Chosen for each other and blessed by God above,
Our family is a circle over everlasting love.
With sharing and support,
Laughter and affection,
Our homemade joy and caring
Deepen our connection.
We’ll keep these tokens with us
So that, near or far apart,
We’ll find each other’s love
Forever close in heart.
I just hope she knows how truly special she really is!
Keep Creating
