💛

Sometimes it’s a smile.
Sometimes it’s one, short, meaningful interaction.
Sometimes it’s welcoming who is curious to explore your world.

Then all the work that goes on behind the scenes is worth it, when you feel that connection and good energy.
It feels like you are in the right place.

Thanks to my friend Angela for capturing this special moment at the Bay Area Kids’ Book Fair yesterday.❤️
Thanks to artist Niem Tran for the lovely chat!😊
And thanks to those who stopped by my booth. Every event is such a unique experience.

A huge THANK YOU to Central Park Elementary School in Santa Clara for inviting me to their fabulous Fall Festival last night!

We had such a fun art time making masks, monsters, scarecrows, and silly creatures.😃
🧡 Watching families creating happy memories always warms my heart.
