On the old family backyard bench a very patient little red haired girl, wearing a lovely new white dress delicately trimmed in blue, sat perfectly straight with hands folded neatly in her lap.
A beaming smile instantly appeared on that round freckled face when the door she had been staring at finally opened revealing her proud mother, carrying her own mother’s beloved white hat complete with a matching blue ribbon.

I read this from an email alert so in my mind you painted a visual so nicely. I clicked like I thought I would see a photo or some art with my eyes and then I stopped because I did one with my heart eyes! That was magical! Who do you do that?! 😄I can still see it in my mind’s eye!

Ok good I hoped it didn’t sound goofy! 😀 I love your twosentence concept. I looked last night to see if you posted. I was glad to see you posted today. I need to spend sometime on your blog turning my lunch hour. I do that for a little break during the day. I have your blog bookmarked! 😀

Well you know what you writing is strong and powerful enough to stand on it’s own. Really it is power packed. You should do an 365 day mytwosentences book or something like that people love those! 😀
