She is right delightful is the word for those photos and your art as well. I love the shadowing and the colors and the expression of the eyes of your paintings. Thank you so much for visiting my blog and for the tribute to Frida with that video.
I am sure will be back.

This was the BEST SHARE ever. That all of our childhoods be as peaceful and blest. That yours was and that you continue to hold the memories of it allow it to remain a possibility for the rest of the world. There is an awesome energy of peace that is transfered from each of the photographs. Tank You.
Your photos are beautiful! I know these are memories you will keep forever. Thanks for sharing them.
These are just extraordinary! What an extraordinary post this is :)
I am in love with these photos! Just perfect. :)
These are so precious Shariyah!
I especially love all the sisters doing each other's hair. It reminds me of being in Sunday school! All the girls would brush the hair of the row in front and so on.
What charming photos-- treasures every one! : )

Shariyah! This is so freakin' cool...
Wonderful pictures. I think my favorite is of the sisters doing each other's hair, but it's a hard choice. They are all so lovely.
Wow! Five sisters. You are blessed. I wish I had one sister. What adorable photos. Thanks for sharing

These images are truly a wonderful journey, S, a looking glass into a little artist fairy life! I am taken away...
What a lovely post - especially liked photo number one.
~*This is a treat! A beautiful peek into a few moments of your life and past with your sisters. What community did you belong to?
All girls? Were there any boys?
Shariya, your BEAUTIFUL earrings have arrived here in NYC today! They are so cool! I am really looking forward to wearing them out tomorrow!*~
~*THANK YOU!!!*~
My heavens these are some gorgeous photographs ... I love each one of them!
There are so many memories packed into each of these precious photos sweetie....i'm so glad i'm your mama....love all ways....missing you!!!
Beautiful....these shots make me think of what life is like in all the old movies and pictures. I wish I could just walk into the photograph and lose myself.
I have absolutely adored the pictures of your childhood. You are so lucky to have these pictures of art with you in them.
xoxoxo

and even more so
IT TOOK ME RIGHT BACK TO MY OWN
dreamings of childhood...
xo, monica :)
These breath-taking photos brought tears to my eyes. What an incredible childhood you must have had!
I found your blog through Lisa Lectura's---so glad I did! What amazingly beautiful work you do! All the best to you~~
Wow! These photos are amazing! Are they in a book? This is a book I would love to have! I only have 2 sister, but the 3 of sat in a row and braided each others hair, went on magical "creek hikes", swam in the swimming hole in the summer and skated on it in the winter. There were always baby birds to see in the barn in the spring and broken robin's eggs shells to find(along with many other treasures) in the woods. These photos bring back so much of the magic(like finding arrow heads in the fields and an Native American axe hammer in the creek one summer too). Wow! These photos are just magical and beyond words really.
I stopped by to tell you to stop by my blog and pick up a little award and to say Hi and that I hope all is well with you!
take care,
merle
OOh, I just remembered-picking everykind of berry for cobbler! We also made some amazing cakes and pies from mud! I know there are more memories that I have forgotten-wow, like finding an old burried wagon wheel where there had once been a road and tons antique blue bottles-I wonder if we found them all?
Yiyah,
These photos are awesome! You are so lucky to have these.
I was stopping by because I wanted to thank you for visiting my blog and entering my OWOH contest (sorry it's taken me so long).
When I got to your blog I was blown away! I have bookmarked you so I'll be coming back.
Did you win anything? I didn't. :(
Best,
Dawn

Do these pictures exist in a book form? They are absolutely beautiful. They look from an enchanted childhood. I thoroughly enjoyed peeking into your past. Such beautiful children, your parents were truly blessed! I'm going to go peek again!! x0x0PINK
These pictures are amazing! What beautiful simplicity is evident in that lifestyle. I wish I could go there.
