Today I am having fun with 2nd Time Around Tuesday. Diane at, A Picture is Worth a 1000 Words is hosting this event. I am sharing a vintage print that hangs above my gateleg table. This is in my kitchen area. It is so sweet with the mom and daughter feeding the hens. My sister owned it before me. Many years ago she was getting rid of it and I paid her what she paid for it and brought it home. I have loved it all these years and feel lucky to own such a lovely print.
I took several shots of this print with no luck with getting it right. The flash was the culprit and I Finally had to take it at an angle. sigh. I still love the way it looks.
For more wonderful chances to see something special, please visit Diane's blog and check the list of participants.
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY.
If at first you don't succeed...
try to
hide your astonishment.
Don't you love this one?
Blessings and love...Jeanne

Hi Jeanne! The print is beautiful. The little girl looks a little bit like Amber, at least in this photo. Have a great day, Love, Linda

Jeanne, this is beautiful. I love it, too! And, Linda is right - the little girls does favor Amber.
Love you.

Love the frame and love the art. It is an amazing work. Growing up with chickens at my childhood home this reminds me of then. Thanks for sharing it.

HI, Jeanne! I was so happy to see you stopped by my place today...lovely to see you, and learn you are doing better now since your surgery! :o) And that you're dressed and everything... ;o) Keep up the good work getting well and fit again. I've been around...perhaps not as frequently, but I'm still around! I've been having some trouble leaving comments at blogs at Blogger and at Typepad too (oddly enough, as I'm on Typepad myself--LOL!) Hopefully just temporary glitch. I know others have been having comment issues too. But your artwork you share today is stunning...so lovely :o) Happy Day to you & yours ((HUGS))

Hi Jeanne
Yes I do love that saying at the bottom of your post. It made me smile... :o)
That picture is lovely. The whole theme with the child and the bird is just lovely. I am so into birds and I can certainly see why you would want to have it. Enjoy.
Hope today has been a lovely one for you.

Hi, sweet friend... so glad you've been able to play on the computer. I was in a meeting for much of the day, and then I had a ton of stuff to do tonight.
Hope you're feeling better. Love you a whole bunch, Miss Jeanne!
