a boy & the Daddy he adores.

 



bryson drew this picture the other night. it's the first picture he's drawn of his dad and himself. (i have a collection of love notes... i've got to snap a photo of them!) the picture brought me to tears with just that mama-bear-pride. he's a sweet boy, a great kid, a joy to call mine. i just had to frame it up for his office. he even drew daddy's new beard!

Oh my heavens...if I framed all the little masterpieces my wonderful children have drawn of their family...well...our house isn't big enough for starters!

Bryson loves his daddy. And for him to express it through his little hands with his heart full of love overflowing through them is beautiful.

You know I hold a very special place for fellow artists! I'll have to be sure to praise him for it the next time I see him. Any time I get the opportunity to make Bryson smile is a good day indeed!!

You'll treasure that picture for the rest of your life. When I run into pictures 'little' Ethan drew for us at Bryson's age, I tear up without fail.

Children are so pure. Such a testament of our Father.

For Bryson:
"Good job, Bryson!! Awesome picture of you and your dad!! I wish I were your dad so that picture could have been for me! Can you believe your mom framed it and now your dad has it in his office?? For everyone at the church to see?! Wow!! And it's all because YOU drew it. See how awesome Jesus is?? He helped you draw it, and it's perfect!! It looks exactly like you and your dad!

Love, Mrs. Simmie"

Personally, I thought the rendition of Bryan was almost life-like. (Gotcha, Bro)
