Change


Today we witness the Historic Inauguration of our new President. I am wondering how I, a decorator who finds change a challenging adventure, will be affected by the change that begins on this day?...

The photo is from the high school graduation sitting that we did with Jordan Horvath and the other is a snap shot done at Christmas in his uniform.

When Jordan was 10 years old, his mother and my dear friend of 23 years asked me to paint the United States flag flying proudly on his bed room wall with the inscription: "America, Land of the Free and Home of the Brave." Who would know that nine years later we would be waving goodbye as he left for boot camp with the United States Army to defend those very words.

"Aunt" Trudy has been privileged to be a part of Jordan's life from the day he was born. I made him the cutest little smocked knicker outfit when he was a toddler, and now he dons the uniform of a soldier.

Jordan will begin Air Borne training at Fort Benning soon. Our prayers and gratefulness will go with him.

So it seems that change, is life...


That's all for now but as always...



Have a colorful day!
