Since the beginning of January I have created thirty (30!) small paintings as party favors to celebrate my youngest daughter's baby shower.   Originally I was aiming for 25, but it turned out that more people were able to attend the party than we had expected.  This was a good thing, but oh, my, it meant painting even more paintings.  Because of a variety of "life events" I fell behind my schedule and was afraid I wouldn't get them done in time.

Whew!  I made it... The shower is tomorrow.   Here are the party favor paintings that I haven't yet posted.   -- The last of them.

It will be wonderful to focus on happy things tomorrow.   My Dad has been very ill and as you all probably know, when someone you care about isn't well, it makes the world seem a bit dimmer. 
Here's a quote from a recent Chinese fortune cookie:
"Everyday in your life is a special occasion."
Let's all try to live that way.
