I like to sketch things that remind me of what happened each day, if I can (I have a useless memory). This rose was given to us by two young girls (now young women) who used to live in a nearby apartment and were good friends with our youngest daughter. We haven’t seen them for quite a few years but the other day, out of the blue, they rang on our doorbell and popped in for a quick hello, as they were visiting the Philippines. They brought this rose as a little gift – how very sweet of them, after all these years.
