Expecting a grandchild- sunflower

It is a heart warming privilege to craft something from the heart for two special souls my son Griffin and our precious daughter in law Alex both who have deep ties to nature.

Around each giant sunflower bloom lies bountiful tiny creatures and details designed specifically for their new born’s imagination. Being able share my joy as these parents-to-be anticipate the birth of their little one makes me feel truly honored!

On a personal note- Griffin and Alex have not picked a name so I think of our future granddaughter as Sunflower.
