The Art Beat Art Show

So it was on a rainy, very cold day.  The schedule was packed to the max.  (not my favorite type of day).  I got a call from the school nurse that Abigail had a red throat and wasn't feeling well.

I made the pediatrician appointment for later that evening and we went anyway (in the cold rain... did I mention that already).  And so if these pictures look like I should drop my tarabakerphotography website you know why.  I was frazzled, worried about her being sick (and yes we found out she had strep that night)

But Abigail was selected for Art Beat our town-wide art show. And we were proud of her and loved her self portrait.

You know what I love about six year old self portraits? She made herself just the way she thinks of herself.  Check out that hair!!!

She brought flowers to her art teacher at the opening night. I love appreciating teachers and going the extra mile for them and Abigail got this sweet thank you note in the mail a few days later.

Another happy memory.
