  2. Aboslutely beautiful
    That was one of my fathers favourite pieces--
    Even though he called it "Cabbages and Rusty Cans"

  3. When I was 2 I think my particular gift was making my wee sister cry. Not something I'm proud of now, but my mum said I had a real talent for it...

  4. exquisitely beautiful, map! you are so generous to share with us!

    on the day i turned two, i was so unhappy - frowning, my little forehead all in rows of ridges and i was decked out in an organza pinafore and white everything - a sticky hot louisiana 2nd birthday day - and i was running a fever of 102!!! but the party went on, frowning me [in all the photos] in front of my huge birthday cake! now, had i just had a big stick that day, it wouldn't have been pretty, i'm betting!!! ;)

  10. I've never heard this before, but as I am home today with a stomach virus, I listened and have written it down. This was very soothing...
