Here's the picture of Malachi that Sam drew for his birth announcement. I think it's Sam's best painting yet. :) He really captured Malachi's happy, bright little expression.
And, just for fun, here are the pictures he did of the other boys for their announcements. The top one is Sebastian and the bottom one is Abraham.
We received ours the other day. Thank you, and it is indeed beautiful. I am always telling people about the awesome artist I am related to, even if it is just by marriage. I even showed a good friend Sam's blog. We oohed and ahhed together.
ReplyDeleteAmazing! Honestly, before I read the post I assumed it was a really cool picture of Malachi. Wow, Sam. That's a lot of talent. Good work.
ReplyDeleteI still think you should have named him Nelson Nielson...Yep, I like those Intrepids.
ReplyDeleteMarylin, it's Laura (Swenson) from your old college ward. i'm cousins with Sheila. I was blog-stalking you this evening and saw these beautiful drawings - I had no idea Sam had such an amazing gift! Your new baby is adorable. I hope everyone is doing well! I still have a copy of your "Happiness" talk from the old ward, and when I ran into Kara (Beck) Shapiro the other day she actually asked for it. See, you're famous! I hope things are going well - you were one of my best visiting teachers (even since then!)!
