It was Christmas time. I was at my uncle's funeral. I already had a very important job I was working on that had a tight deadline. My art director asked me if I would be interested in illustrating the Tortoise and the Hare, due the day after my other big job.
I couldn't say no!

I felt very blessed to have work over Christmas break, even though it meant less time that I could spend playing with my kids. We made it work. And I fit this project in whenever I could. Thanks to my husband for helping me push the backgrounds so they were more exciting!
