Mother stork



As I am changing the palette of colours I thought I could go a bit further and also change some elements.

Since we don't have squirrels in Portugal I thought of replacing it by a stork, because we have many where I live.

Afterwords I thought it could be even more meaningful to me, as my mum used to tell me I had been brought by a stork. So, I decided to add a chick, symbolising my mum and I (the only chick/child in this nest).

As next Thursday, 6. August will be one year that my mum left us, here is a very warm thought for her, whom I miss extremely.

Robert made some magic with photoshop, so that the white stitches in the stork and chick could be noticed in the photo.
