YJ's Smile

Our Daughter Yvonne; taken October '09 as she took a week of her holidays to help her aging parents enjoy their favourite campsite; she drove us around; her sharp eyesight pointing out wildlife we might have missed; she pitched in with chores, cooking, dishes and kept her sunny nature throughout; although much like the Chaplin song depicted above "Smile tho' your heart is aching, Smile even tho' it's breaking etc...." She was hiding her deep hurt, as her husband of 10+ years had recently walked out.

 

Charley Chaplin got his start with a "Clog" group known as the Eight Lancashire Lads led by Wm. Jackson - my Grandfather - thus the nostalgia!

Beautiful photo of your daughter, and lovely layout--I really like the circle path around her and over the music. Sad that she'd been left, but I bet she's going to land on her feet with such a great attitude!

Great photo and I love how you have designed your LO. What a special time for you to share and I am sure that it was a grateful distraction for your daughter. Love the song you used, all around lovely LO.

Oh so bitter sweet. What a lovely layout of your dd, and I'm so sorry for what she's going through. She seems like she's such a blessing to you all. Your layout is so beautiful and I love the blending on you photo and the sheet music in the background.
