Recent note from A. Sprakes who purchased "Rainbow Houses"

Thought I would drop a line to let you know Rainbow Houses made it to our house today. I love it and when I saw it I knew it would be a wonderful addition to our home. My daughter opened it and asked me why I got it in the moment I replied "to make you happy" and she said "it's already made me happy". She is 4 1/2 and had me hang next to her to bed - that was not the planned place for it, but know it doesn't seem to belong anywhere else. It was lovely to then open your card and read your own sentiment about it. I'm sharing this with you as we don't always get to hear or know how we touch others lives and who knows how it could inspire her as she drifts off to sleep each night.  You're art certainly touched our family tonight.
