My most recent collage was received today by my childhood best friend, Melissa. She and I met shortly after we began first grade together. We lived close enough that we could walk to each other's houses and we spent endless days together making mud pies, riding bikes and walking to the corner store to buy candy. We laughed, we sang, we imagined.
As life would have it we gradually lost touch for many years. Babies were born, loved one's passed but there was never a time that I didn't think about my sweet best friend. Only recently have we reconnected and it feels so right to have her back in my life. Melissa had requested that I make a collage for her in an Asian theme. In honor of a friendship renewed here it is. Melissa, you're beautiful inside and out, you sing like an angel and I can't wait until we can "play together" again!
good morning rhonda~!~
ReplyDeletewas flickring and noticed your collage so i had to come for a quick visit. this is wonderful and i can't imagine that Melissa won't love it~!!~
