Flashback with Angel Madi sharing a story about her Dad aka Bryan who is an artist

When Mom was 19 (~1968 aka Stone age), she worked part time in a fancy clothing store. The wooden purses were very popular. She and my Dad had just started dating. Often she mentioned to him how much she admired the purses. Well Dad started to secretly investigate the wooden purses because he wanted my Mom to have one. After careful consideration, Dad concluded that he could make one for her. He worked on it for a very long time. Finally the time came to give it to my Mom. As I've mentioned, many times Mom is a squealer and I'm pretty sure she S Q U E A L E D long and loud when she saw this beautiful wooden purse made with love and care just for her. Dad bought the unfinished purses at a hobby/art shop. He hand drew each of the butterflies on the purse, painted them in their authentic colors,

painted the edges of the purse,note the itty bitty tiny orange line in between the yellow and brown. The brown semi-circles were made by tracing 1/2 of a penny
After all the painting was complete he put several coats of lacquer on the purse to perserve the drawings and the paint. Here it is 42 years later and the purse looks nearly perfect.Mom said she was so afraid she would dent it she only used it on Sunday. It has been stored with tender love and care over the years.

If you enlarge the pictures, you might see that each butterfly has tiny jewels on its wings that sparkle. The name of each butterfly is also either above or below the drawing.

Here is our fun photo challenge

A little cottage

We bought a cottage

nestled in the trees

It was foggy, very hard to see
The yard was full of weeds

Oh no we thought,

we will need to reseed

The realtor said no need

In the spring it will all be green

I’d say he was right

 We had no idea it had a babbling creek 

out back and a deck with RED chairs.

Dear Auntie,

It’s still too hot to go outside, so Mom & I have playing baseball in the house!

Mom’s sending my video to the Atlanta Braves, in case they’re looking for a pinch hitter!  I can run around the bases fast too! Put me in coach! I’m ready to play!  😹
