The Girl With the Swirl Earring

A rare photo of our 17-yr-old

I got away with taking a photo of Gemma because I kept her face out of the picture.

I spent a long time in her room today trying to sort through her unbelievable mess. It was pretty unpleasant but needs doing so we can paint her room before a new carpet arrives next week.

I've been sneezing ever since and have an itchy nose and itchy skin now.

As an artist, Gemma is delighted to see her desk again
