There she is...the third generation
There she is, full of energy, enthusiasm, and love for her mother. That's her mother, seated at the table, doing some beading, likely making a bracelet or some other piece of jewellery. The table Karen is seated at is one her father made for her years ago for one of her birthdays. The diamond point pine armoire behind her is one her younger brother made for her, a copy of a Quebec-type 18th century armoire. Beside the armoire stands one of the original Hoosiers made in the 19th century in, I believe, Indiana. We bought it about 35 years ago when we still lived in Toronto. Beside the Hoosier is a little pine computer stand that my husband made for me and which Karen now uses. The house we're in is in Hammond, Ontario, where Karen and her child Angelyne live with their seven dogs, four rabbits. Good grief.
Although it cannot be seen in the photograph, (the rabbit itself, that is) it appears (although I don't remember it) that one of the rabbit cages has been temporarily shoved under the kitchen table.
Almost forgot: that's me in the vermilion top holding Riley our toy poodle. Why'm I holding him? Because he'd like nothing better than to mix it up with Karen's little three-pound Pomeranian and he ignores my orders to cease and desist.
That's it folks, there isn't any more for the time being. Cheerio.
