3D glasses on!

Last night I took Ranna to her first movie,we watched Kung fu panda 2.She was so excited about the whole Movie theatre atmosphere and for the movie i think it was a little bit too much action for her ,and also after a while she wanted to watch the movie without the glasses,and she decided the best spot to watch the movie is the very top row.

Ranna has started to draw, she gets really into it what i love about her drawing is that she fill up the whole page with different colors,like a painter. She's really fasinated with colors, i see people asking her what are you drawing? but honestly i think she is just painting colors,color is her subject, seeing her enjoying each color just make me look at them with a fresh eye and experience the same joy.

Thanks everyone for your kind words about Ranna Sorry i didn't write back to you one by one. i got myself back together to post something,I didn't really want to abandon my internet nest, my brain just has been very occupied with all the new things about motherhood, Ranna is six month now and i think i'm getting better in managing my life and taking care of her.
My friend Jodi Sandler made a very cute animated music video for Sixpence none the richer and was kind enough to ask me to do the backgrounds for it. here is a background if you like to see more please go to my painting blog.

Tonight at 1:48 am spring starts and all the trees are waking up from their long winter sleep. As a centuries old tradition Persians are celebrating new year at this time with nature.It calls Norooz, meaning New day.
Happy Happy spring and Norooz to all.

Love to light the whole sky
