I SAT WITH A COPY OF A TINY LITTLE PHOTO, A TINY PHOTO OF A FAMILY GROUP IN A PRECIOUS MOMENT. THE ORIGINAL WAS HARD TO SEE AND FALLING APART AND TORN IN PLACES. THE MEMORY IS NOT. I WAS AWARE THAT I MUST NOT PUT ANYTHING INTO THE PHOTOGRAPH THAT WASN'T THERE AND THAT I SHOULD STRIVE TO MAKE SOMETHING THAT WOULD PROLONG THE LIFE OF THAT PRECIOUS MOMENT.
IT WAS A SPECIAL PRIVILEGE TO DO THIS FOR NETTIE.
