No. 364: Hello It's Me




a·dorbs/əˈdôrbz/

adjective
  1. inspiring great delight; cute or adorable.
  2.  

It's a real adjective!  And all of my wordy, literate friends hate it! And they despise overuse of exclamation points! I'm told they bastardize the English language!

But people, let me testify: This. Is. ADORBS. (!!!)

This child, Karter, is my brother's granddaughter.  And this picture was a rush job, crammed in between other projects and finished in four days to have it ready for her first birthday party. 

Now, she'll never remember anything of this picture, her smash cake or her gifts. First birthday parties are really an adult excuse to get the family together over fried chicken, beer and snacks.

But this portrait now hangs in the family's dining room and will watch over many more future gatherings. Some memories are meant to last.
