Whenever I read the parts in my series with the little boy inspired by my nephew, Mello, I smile. :)<br /><br />Your niece Kayle was Kaylee! Oh, that is marvelous! I like knowing that. :)<br /><br />You're right. There is nothing more magical or special than a child's imagination. If only we could bottle it. ;)<br /><br />Thank you for your lovely comment, Gina.Chrys Feyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11955009490266358041noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9133489888936435050.post-884971171485422502014-01-03T20:45:31.463-05:002014-01-03T20:45:31.463-05:00Chrys, this was beautiful, and I love how much you...Chrys, this was beautiful, and I love how much your nephews have inspired your writing. I'm sure they will continue to do so as your writing grows with the steps and milestones you and your nephews conquer=)<br />Children have always held a huge place within my heart ever since I started caring for them during and after college. My niece, Kayle, was the source of one of my characters in a children's book I wrote=)<br />The imagination of a child is endless and full of discovery, wonder and opportunities. I am forever reminded of my own childhood through the eyes and imagination of my niece and the thousands of kids I get to visit each year. I'm really thankful for authors (and good friends=) like you who are so inclined to share their gratitude for the inspiration of our irreplaceable and magnificent children.
