My favorite piece of art...

The post below talks about some of my favorite things that are hanging on our walls in our new home. However, the pictures below are of my MOST FAVORITE thing that is displayed in our home right now. I am not kidding that when I look at this piece of art, even just at these pictures, my heart goes pitter patter.
Tate has drawn things on several occasions, he loves all things art. There are a couple of things about this peice that he completed a couple of days ago that just struck me. First, the fact that he spent so much time creating it and making it "just right" is so sweet. It is a picture of Sean, Tate and I. He drew each of us in our favorite colors. Sean's favorite color is red, mine is green and Tate's is of course orange. When he completed it, he was so proud that he came racing up the stairs to show us and then asked ever so sweetly if he could please hang it on the fridge where in his words, "all people who come to our new home can see it". I told him that I would really like it if he would actually let me frame it and hang it on the wall. He was genuinely so excited and in awe that I would want to do that.
I hung it in the kitchen, just above our family calendar where all who come into our home can see it. And honestly, I think it is the most adorable and special thing that is on our walls. I love the bright frame (thank you Cathy!) that displays it and it looks perfect in our kitchen!
