B Squared

For Christmas Santa gave me a real surprise...

I asked for a banjo this year and nothing else.
But then I was told the harsh truth about how much good banjo's really cost.

A LOT!!
so expectations were
Very

Very
Very
Very
Low

But as I was awoken by my little sister on Christmas morning
I let out yelp

"YELP"
when I saw sitting in the corner, my very own

BANJO


I also am trying out this new bang thing, not sure if I'm loving it though.
My end goal was to look like this woman....



Yeah, didn't happen

Sister Stone's Christmas

The story,

Four little girls, all under the age of ten, lost their father,

Four little girls Will see their father,
They are together forever.


A portrait of Sister Stones aunt's and her mother, drawn with her father standing in the background.

What a magical Christmas gift.
I wish I would've come up with it
