Family Portrait

My cousin’s four-year-old daughter is a budding artist. She loves to draw portraits of people she knows, and John’s spiky hair makes him a favorite subject.

Below is her latest drawing of our family, complete now with Lana in my arms. I am, however, most impressed by the portrayal of John. This is sweet revenge for the picture she drew while I was pregnant in which I was three times the size of John and had a midsection like a small house.
