Miss Tabytha would like to wish everyone a very Merry Christmas… “with lots of presents too!”

How cute is that Mrs. Claus!!!

After a couple of days getting used to all the noise and activity around here, Nibbles finally braved the great outdoors and left her castle to visit us.   Geez… She’s hard to catch.

Introducing Nibbles…

  She is quite adorable and Tabytha just loves her new friend.

Today my little witchy-poo turned 6 years old… I can hardly believe it!  It seem like just yesterday I first met her as she lay swaddled up staring at me from across the room.

A moment that inspired one of my favorite and most touching pieces…

An day to remember in those 365 days a year.

The living room is no more as the Rose Petal cottage goes up and the kids move in.

This tent-like house was easy enough for me to build in no time at all and worth hours of fun… and a couple of sleep overs.

I thought it would be fun to join in the 365 Days picture a day challenge.  What a great way to chronicle a year in a lifetime.

So here’s the first for January 1st, 2009…

Tabytha finally conquers her fears and leaps off the diving board at the community pool.

Before school broke for Christmas vacation, we received a call from the school inviting us to attend a award ceremony for Tabytha.

My fool of a husband didn’t even think to ask what the award was for (duh!) and it wasn’t until days later that Tabytha was awarded…

The kindergarten Math-Magician award!   Artistic and smart… heehee… just like her momma!
;o)

A little something from my witchy apprentice Tabytha (age 5) who loves to create at all hours… day and night.  Done with black and orange crayon on paper.

I just love how she continues to develop her art… now with more real looking eyes and lips.  No more smiley type faces.  )

After a wonderful summer, it’s that time of the year again.  It’s been a hectic couple of weeks but the kiddos have gone…

It’s so quiet!!!

So often I’m asked about the name Two Little Witches. Witches are mean and nasty, so why would a children’s artist of fairytales choose such a name?

Well here’s why…

Meet my daughter Tabytha… For anyone familiar with the old show Bewitched, that’s how we came to be known as the two little witches.

Good ones of course!

Has sprouted… her own home grown beans fresh from the garden! The one she and Daddy grew for the very first time.

It was a very exciting moment for this little proud mama!
