Random moments I get to slow down and I am so surprised at how old our girls are getting and just how beautifully talented they are. This is one of Alex's latest sketches. It is of Link a character on one of her video games. It is amazing to watch her draw something like this at the age of 13. I keep wondering, what will her art be like 10 years from now after college? This is her dream job, designing artwork for video games. But for now, I cherish the moments like this: Walking in from work the other day to find Adam and Alex sketching in the living room together. Alex was shocked, "Dad I didn't know you could draw! You are really good!" I smiled and told her to tuck that away somewhere safe. Adam throws away his sketches, just for fun he will say. I hope Alex pursues art for the rest of her life. So grateful that this gift was passed on. Generational Gifts! A celebration of life. The past, present and the future.

That looks fantastic, Alex...
Our boys say the same thing, "Dad, you can draw really good." :)
Adam, however, can draw better than me for sure... I remember comic books and family cartoons making us all laugh.
Yea Jeremy. Remember the camping cartoon with the flying tent pole and the poor squirrel in the tree. Loved that one. But as good as Adam is, I think Alex may be a little better. Keep up the good work Alex.
