Once upon a time there was an extremely creative little girl. One of her favorite activities was to create characters—in stories, in drawings, and even in clay.

Now, she’s graduated from Newberry High, and, after a summer stint of nannying, she’ll be off to college to be a creative adult.

Today was her celebration party. We’re all so proud of our lovely L.

    Yes, all of those double-quotes were hers. Inventive quoting? 😉

    Ah, I’m sure my own early writings were nearly as creative, but none survive, as far as I know….

    OK, so where has the time gone? This little girl used to be muddy-faced and annoying; now she is a lovely woman. We are grateful to have friends like you who have been and are a part of her life.
