Nov. 23

Yesterday shortly after our Thanksgiving dinner the power went out–something that happens far too frequently here.  We do have a backup battery that runs a few lights for a while.  We all gathered  cozily around the fireplace with candles but were soon back in the kitchen where we could read.  This is a quick sketch of Emma reading “Calvin and Hobbes.”  I think children’s gestures are wonderful but they move so constantly!  The was the only pose that lasted long enough for me to get anything down.
