\nI’m taking a break from picture-book spreads today (though I’ll be back very soon with some) to share this sun from illustrator Elizabeth Haidle<\/a><\/strong>. It’s in honor of spring coming and the first buttercup I saw in our yard this week. It’s in honor of hopes that we’ll all get the vaccine sooner than we expected, thanks to Biden’s efforts and the news he shared this week. And it’s posted as we note the one-year mark of first coming to terms with the pandemic and heading inside to socially isolate. Whew. It’s been a long year, but the sun is coming out. Soon, we may even be able to hug a friend again<\/a><\/strong>. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

You may remember Elizabeth from this 2019 post<\/a><\/strong>. As you can see from this Instagram post<\/a><\/strong> where I first saw the sun, Elizabeth will soon see (April 20) the publication of Tarot for All Ages<\/a><\/strong><\/strong><\/em>. You can read more about it here<\/a><\/strong>. She says that the image pictured above is The Sun Major Arcana card. <\/p>\n

Beautiful. <\/p>\n
