Smiling Sunflower

A dear family friend sent me and Trevor a belated wedding gift.
She told me that every time she thinks of our "sunflower" wedding she smiles. 
(one of my colors was a rich marigold/sunflower yellow, and along with daises and some of my other favorite flowers I had big giant sunflowers at the reception.)
She then told me that she was so inspired by our wedding, that she had to make me this gift....


She is so talented, and her sweet gesture melted my heart.
I can't wait to put it up on a windowsill &let the sunshine come through it.
I am happy that thoughts of my wedding day make her smile, because every time I see this beautiful piece of art... I do the same thing.
