Paige presented her gift next, and like Nami, she had also made a card.... Lawrence opened the box, and inside was a scarf... "I didn't know that you could knit...." "Well, I didn't...but then Naomi showed me how...." 'You did a great job....and it fits perfectly!" "I love it. Thank you!" Then it was David's turn. "Happy birthday Dad!" "I made you something too...." It was a bird house...." "This is really nice. You did a great job...." "Uncle Baron did help me a little...but I put it all together...." "I thought you could hang it in the garden outside your office window...." "It will be interesting to see who moves in...."

Yes, they all have plenty of skills, and access to help if they needed it. I just wanted to focus on something different for Lawrence's birthday, instead of the usual party and dinner, and thought it would be fun to focus on the gifts the children made for their Dad. Kids are all the same everywhere, and if they had been in modern times, that birdhouse would have been made of popsicle sticks.

I wish every child had such a good and loving Papa. Your characters have such nobility--whether they are royalty or not. We love, laugh, and cry with them.

Thank you. That means a lot. I love trying to capture the 'emotions' through the poses and camera angles.
