Beautifully shot and worked, Laura. A favorite for me. It'll also be a BP winner! #10862060

Hi Monnie, Michelle and Mr Tree. You guys are just the BEST! When I was growing up my mother and father were always a huge support in all I would do and try to do. It meant so much to me and I never knew I'd have that type of support again in life...but I find it here with my BP family.

Thanks so much! I appreciate each word and even if BP doesn't find this to be a winner I feel like one already because of you.

Pom, every version of this little girl you post is sweet as candy, and really creative. Love the colors, light, and textures in this. Winner, my dear!
On a personal note: one of us was seriously channeling the word "Rusty" to the other on the third, because that's when Scott and I officially adopted our new furbaby, Rusty.
I hope his photo comes up here.It's the first ever posted ANYwhere. Aren't you special? :-D #10863512

Laura E. Swan level-classic October 06, 2013

YES! It did show up! GOOD JOB and I am very honored my Rusty image is where you posted an inner-thread photo for your first time!

I'm so tickled about your new little kitty, Mare! WOW!!!:D

WELCOME DARLING LITTLE RUSTY! Not only to this world but to The BetterPhoto Family!

YES! The 3rd was a special day for us both. And now you are a family of three again just like Dale and I are a family of three now, too.

He's super cute and it's great to finally see Scott! He has such a gentle face.

Love you Mare and thanks for all you said about my Little Girl. I wish her folks could have copies of my work of her. :) She is a little Star now shining in my gallery galaxy!

-Pommy Beamin'

Go Rusty! :D =^..^=

Hi Nancy! Thanks so much for the Gallery Visit tonight, and for your super comments!! :D This little girl was so cute. She stood at the window waiting for the tram to reach the top of the mountain to take us all back down. She was actually pointing to it. :)

Please say hello to little Monkey Tails for me, okay?
