With so many technical gadgets it is much easier to capture moments and
store them on a disk, memory card... digital file~
Sweet memories that bring us joy!
Some moments are remembered only in our hearts~
There is no photographic record of it...
No way to prove it existed or ever happened.
The heart never forgets!
I will never forget moments with my dad.
He & I only had 12 years together... but the moments we shared are
collected and written on my heart.
For your chance to win this original pen & ink on fabric,

Oh I love this one! It reminds me of me and my daughter when she was young! Thanks for the chance to win it! :0)
So sweet! I remember walking in the forest with my grandfather. We had our dog with us and he knew all the plants.
I was sitting in bed with my Dad and he was teaching me how to whistle. I did a really loud whistle and my mum said she had heard it from the garden.
It's my favourite and first Dad memory.
Although I've never been able to whistle since.
Мишель, у меня с отцом было чуть больше времени - 21 год, но этого мало. Остались хорошие и добрые воспоминания.
Спасибо за ностальгический пост. Играю в лотерею!
Hi Michelle:
We're in Wisconsin "collecting moments" right now! How wonderful to spend time with family and friends. We're taking lots of photographs and will have new memories to last a lifetime. I love the sweet giveaway you're offering.

Oh Michelle this is simply beautiful. I have so many really happy memories of times spent with my father but one very special one is that when my dad went anywhere he would bring me back a little note book and pencil.....I would then spend many happy hours spent sitting on the wall at the front of our house recording car reg numbers...simple needs back then eh? :-)
Hugs,

Michelle, I absolutely adore your drawings and you also have a very good way with words, evoking emotions in myself. My father only has weeks to live and I agree ~~all those wonderful memories will always be with me.
Memories are sometimes the only things we have left to remember people we knew. Love your work and the words that you use it hits the heart of life. Have a great day
Oh how sweet of you! I love keeping scrapbooks and old fashioned photo albums. Photos help us preserve our memories. We need to print some of our digital photos, too! Thanks sweet friend! Hugs!
What a sweet drawing. I remember gong on errands with my Dad in the car and I loved it. It was our special time together. How kind of you to offer this up, Annette T
Memories are the most treasured collections of all! Precious times shared with your dear father shall remain safe within your heart now and always.
Sending warm hugs your way...

Such a sweet image! My favourite `memory`really isn`t one that I actually was old enough to remember, but I`ve been told so many times and now I actually feel as though I do. My dad was a farmer and he would take me as a tiny baby on the tractor with him. He`d drive with one hand and I was cradled in the other arm. I apparently was totally content and much preferred to be with him than in house with my mother. Daddy`s girl, obviously!
Such a sweet drawing!! It reminds me of how I would snuggle up close to my dad when he sang with his group. He loved to sing and was quite accomplished. I can remember him holding me while he sang (I was a small child)...those are very precious memories!! He's been gone 17 years...
Thanks for a chance to win this lovely giveaway. I have fond memories of camping with my family when they were young.
I would love a chance to win one of your fabulous drawing :)

Please add me to the hat filled with your other sweet posts from special followers. One thing that I have as a reminder of a special memory is a silhouette of my Lovely when she was about 4 years old. Those long eyelashes and upturned nose remind of the sweet little girl she was all those years ago. Now a high school graduate, the facial features have changed into those of a young lady. I'm so thankful for the silhouette to remind of sweet time gone by.
Hugs,
