Well, I cannot tell you how impressed we were with the picture you did for Aunt Maude. It is so unique and it is one of a kind, and the glass and frame are so protective of it, and it is all just wonderful. I asked my mother if she wanted me to take the picture home because it is so valuable and she said, NO. She said she liked it and she wanted to enjoy it and that nobody would steal her art. So, with prayers for human honesty and knowing how she will enjoy it, we removed another picture and put that one in its place. When I asked about each picture she has hanging—if I could take it away for now because they would not let her put any more nails in the walls, she refused to let me take the stamp picture. She loves to look at that and especially enjoys it because you made it just for her.
