Gee Whiz--The G's Are Finally Ready to Go!
I couldn't sleep last night (or more correctly, in the wee hours this morning). While that wasn't good for my physical and mental health and well-being, it was good for my ABC Book. Because I found that working on the G pages was a genuinely calming activity. Doing artwork--sketching and coloring my little pictures, and dreaming of the day when I'll finally have a finished book for my grandkids--was a bit of a Godsend, I'll tell you. If I'm going to be up anyway, I'd just as soon feel like I'm being productive.
So here are the G's, gang.
My husband appreciated that I got all the G's involved: the hard G, the soft G, and even the silent G. If my grandchildren don't notice how generous I was with this letter, that's okay; as long as they feel the love Grammy put into these illustrations.
So here are the G's, gang.

Perfect! I can't wait to buy a copy for my granddaughter!
ReplyDeleteYou will get the family discount. ;)
DeleteI can't wait for this book! And what a handsome man and baby you drew with the giraffe ;) (this is Katie by the way)
ReplyDeleteI actually worked on the dad's face today. It looked a little too ghost-like. I think it's better now.
DeleteLove, love, love the Garden Gnome!
ReplyDeleteI do, too, Donna--because he's modeled after a gnome figurine that our oldest son's in-laws gave to them, and it's always been on a shelf in their home. Our granddaughters will recognize it here, I hope.
DeleteWhen I have grandbabies I want a copy of this book for them. No pressure.....but I hope it's finished by then (a couple more years at least).
ReplyDeleteI want to finish by Christmas...but I haven't met ANY of the deadlines I've given myself for the past few years. So I'm not sure that's going to happen. But I am determined to get it done ASAP.
DeleteAs always, I a big non-related fan over here! I love that you incorporated all the g sounds!
ReplyDeleteI can always count on your kindness, Madeline! You are a very special member of my blog family. :)
