Bell challenge


This is a little china bell with two figures on it that an old friend gave me many years ago. We are in contact on birthdays and Christmas but we used to see each other every week. It is interesting how friends come and go and are here often then only occasionally. I love the bell because it reminds me of her and our wonderful times together. When I moved house I made it a point to only bring things with me that had special meaning and value. The bell was one of them.
Lots of love from Susan in Australia

That's adorable, Susan. I enjoy it when there is a touching story to go with a drawing. Thanks.

Susan, what a sweet drawing and story! I think my mom had something similar at one point so I can just hear your bell while looking at your drawing.
