I have now started a story about kittens, and the most important character is Verbiny the princess who found the mother-cat in the woods, caught her, and tamed her. One of the four kittens had a black back arched up like a kangaroo rat’s, and at the top of each white stocking was a band of yellow. All the kittens catch little crickets and grasshoppers, and one of the kittens catches a bay mouse, and a kitten named Citrolane catches two sparrows, one with each paw. — Barbara Follett at age 6, two years before she would finish her first novel.

Entrance to the stunning Monet’s Garden exhibition (Taken with Instagram at New York Botanical Garden)
“These landscapes of water and reflections have become my obsession. They are quite beyond the powers of an old man, and despite everything I want to succeed on conveying what I feel.”
Claude Monet to Gustave Geffroy,1883
It’s pretty cool how the reflections play off each other in the Palm Dome pool, and you really captured it! ~AR
