Day 242: When a child loves you ...



Yesterday, I went to Jamestown Flea Market.


















    And in Day 241 blogI showed you some of ...
 the many things that caught my eye.
Here are a few more.





















These abandoned bears and dolls 
didn't make the cut yesterday. They seemed so sad.
They reminded me of a favorite book ...
The Velveteen Rabbit by Margery Williams.



I did this illustration years ago.

I remember seeing this time and time again as a young child growing up in your home on one of your art pieces. I can't remember if it was in the dining room or the downstairs bathroom... I would read it over repeatedly and tried to understand the meaning and significance of it back then.

Now that I have my own child, I finally get it. Completely. :)
