Love the sketch from ARTFUL DELIGHT.
While doing this layout it brought me to tears, my eldest is now 13
and will be starting high school soon.

fear that in only 4 years he will go to college and probably be away from us :(
But i know he's a smart and good kid. Everyday,
we continue to show him how much we love him and continue to guide him to the right path.
Like, i mentioned this one is also for
