85 and 86 of 642 Things to Draw


My 16-year old daughter says, “Mom, I heard a great quote the other day:
If you raise your children, you spoil your grandkids. If you spoil your children, you raise your grandkids.”
Ah, how true that is.

She took time off from work and went to the other side of the reef when Liz the Leafy Seadragon needed help moving her mother’s things.

But Chloe’s friends knew she possessed a very good heart. She really loved her friends very much. If they needed anything – anything – she was there.
She brought spicy seaweed soup to Annie Anthias when Annie had the flu.

Chloe liked to hang out with Liz. They swam around the neighborhood on weekends and talked about work, politics, and dating.
They worked at the magazine, “Fish and Trips,” a travel guide for les poisson.
