Hiatus

Hello, everyone!
     As you have noticed, we've been on a long-ish break for the last couple weeks. Some of our family has passed away and life has been shaken up a bit. We are not abandoning this blog, but we will be continuing the break for at least another week (most likely more). But here is a list of goals we have for Journal of Two Dolls this year:

  • Draw and post the picture of Lily Rose
  • Start up Fashion Fun again
  • Write and post a photostory series



     Thank you for not un-following us, even though we're not posting - it means a lot! Hopefully we'll be back in our normal routine in the following weeks.
     Have a lovely day! :)

P.S. That lovely photo was taken by Aunt Abby. :)

~Musician~

Greetings!
     I wrote a bit of poetry today and thought I'd post it here. Tell me what you think! :)


Musician

The violin is cradled in your hands like a fragile bird
A bird that is singing under your bow.
You coax out the melody, graceful and lithe
You and the music are one.

The strings are trembling
Overcome with emotion
The notes ache with words that can only be felt.

The bow dips and falls
Alive within your fingers
Poignant, spilling out the beauty in your soul.


     Have a lovely day. :)

-Sylvia

P.S. Picture of violin is from Google. ;)
