A place to show my love for my granddaughter who lives with Cerebral Palsy and my passion for painting. In an effort of raising awareness for C.P. every painting brush stroke I make on raw canvas is a stroke of love, as I discretely paint a green C.P. awareness ribbon in every piece. Can you find them?
Do you know someone who would like to have a painting done? email www.harrold.janet@gmail.com

"No need for words"

Just a little insight to where my mind goes most of the time.
No need for words, I can hear your heart speak to me. It softly reminds me of what is most important, and where I want to be. When I am with you it's as if the entire world comes to a hault. The only thing in the room that matters is you, the slight tilt of your head, your contagious smile. Makes me believe that it is all worth while. They said it would be different, how could they have known, that your smile would change the world. So glad we got the opportunity to get to know you, to love you, to hold you. @copyright Janet Lee Harrold

An Interview with Parenting on the Peninsula


I have recently been contacted to do an interview with Donne Davis a columnist from "Parenting on the Peninsula" (POP) is a monthly journal serving the San Francisco Peninsula and the Silicon Valley whose sole purpose is to provide valuable parenting information for parents of children of all ages. She thought my blog was so beautiful and touching. Isn't that sweet? The publication is both online and in print, however since I am not in California, I can't just walk into the local coffee shop and pick up a copy. To read the interview with me, click on the link below and  scroll down to page 6! Then go back and read the rest of the publication.
