Hertsje In Sepia Tones

Hertsje opened one of the drawers in my secretary today.  She was expecting to find puzzles, but instead she found a doily.

Immediately she knew exactly what to do with it.

On her head it went, while she softly said something that sounded like "hat on".

 I mean REALLY!

Doesn't she just look like she is from another time?

What?  You don't see it?  Let me enlarge this picture for you.

Oh, yes.  She is a little Dutch girl.

I'm sure you are surprised that she is not sporting the wooden shoes.

We'll save that for another day.

The sepia tones really cast an old-fashioned feel to these pictures.

She awoke from her afternoon nap with really bright red checks.  The sepia tones took care of that, but I added just a hint of pale blush to her checks in these photos.

Today she did quite a bit of walking on her own.  I'm not surprised, as she is well on her way to conquering the world.

And with those dimples, big blues eyes, and happy personality, she is well on her way to doing just that.

She has already conquered her Pake and me.
