"A life-long blessing for children is to fill them
with warm memories of times together. Happy memories become treasures in the
heart to pull out on the tough days of adulthood."
Yesterday Maggie and I received the first draft of our illustrations for our 1st kid's book: MaggieMooseTracks® MAKING FRIENDS. The illustrations were brilliant! The artist Randy Jennings captured Maggie's puppy essence perfectly. It made me want to look back at some of her puppy photos. We took a trip down memory lane together. My goodness, I see why I nicknamed her MaggieMoose. She really had big paws to go with her big legs. She was so cute with her sweet little face. (Still is!)
On the flipside, my twin girls have a birthday on May 1st. More memory lane. Maggie and I looked at their old photos. Now they're still young, but all grown up living independent lives. We saw a flashback of Christy sib snuggling up to Maggie puppy in the cozy bed. Then we came across her twin Julie sib running with Maggie when Maggie was one year old.
So many fun photos to look at.... Maggie and I decided we have a treasure trove of memories we can look at and enjoy. It's a legacy for the sibs to enjoy too. Smiles came across our faces as we scrolled through all the images of days past.
We're ready for other kids to start creating memories of Maggie's puppy tails. These tails (tales) might just bring some smiles on a rainy day. This time the memories will come in a beautiful fiction book filled with story and color illustrations. Maggie knows her puppy tails will bring memories of joy, wonder and a little suspense for days to come. Our 1st kid's book is titled MaggieMooseTracks® MAKING FRIENDS. The book will be available on Amazon & Kindle around the end of May or beginning of June 2013! Stay tuned! WOOF WOOF
