Melissa(Top Right): This is witch hazel in my yard, it only blooms now and will soon will up with green leaves and in the fall they will urn to the color the blossoms are now. it it nice to have some color during these rainy days.
Aubrey(Bottom Left): This illustration is by one of my favorite childhood authors: Roald Dahl. This particular picture is from the story Esio Trot, about a man desperately in love with the woman who lives below him. He is painfully shy though. The lady who lives below him loves her pet tortoise but while feeding him one day she laments to her upstairs neighbor Mr. Hoppy she wishes her pet would grow. Mr. Hoppy devises a genius plan to win his lady love and has her read some magic Words to her pet to make him grow. While she is at work he chooses a larger tortoise from the 100+ he has purchased from the pet store and places it on her balcony in place of the previous one. By the end of the story the woman, Mrs. Silver is so tickled she invites Mr. Hoppy down to her apartment, he is so taken aback by her smile he purposes to her right away! And that is that, they love happily ever after and the original tortoise finds a new home with a little girl named Roberta.
Lily(Bottom Right): "John" He's a boy because he has a beard. He is wiggling his arm around and doing tricks. (juggling, perhaps)
