Last weekend families in many parts of the world celebrated Mother’s Day. To be honest, the day was similar to what I have experienced since we were asked to stay at home. This year we could not go out, and my family could not go shopping for flowers and treats. My daughters, however, did not let the day go by without giving me the gifts that they had made for me.

My youngest drew a picture of me reading on the sofa – a sight that is frequently seen in my home. In addition, she animated it (I am unable to post the animated version here). Her digital portrait of me still makes me smile. I love it so much that it is my new profile picture for my Instagram account. ๐
What has made you smile during the past week?

Great portrait – a wonderful gift ๐ Is the animated version on Instagram? I haven’t looked at Insta in ages, but this would give me an excuse to look.

For some reson it wouldn’t load the animated version either! Maybe the file is too big?

It could be file size… I did post a huge animated gif on WP, but I also once (years ago) paid for extended media storage. i only paid once, but I think I still have it (I needed it for music uploads).

How sweet, and she’s such a gifted artist. It really does look like you. And I see contentment on the face. Very realistic.
