Trees have always been a symbol of families for me. Maybe it's an obvious metaphor, but it's classic and fitting--roots deep beneath the earth to our oldest ancestors and branches up towards the budding leaves of our baby loves and future descendants. Some trees grow into each other, or divide into multiple boughs that continue to grow and sprout tender, pink and white blossoms that flutter on the wind. Those trees are beautiful works of art to me in the way they cling to each other and the unique way their branches compliment each other.
The Francis family represented that to me--their personality and charm intertwining with the tender work they put into being a loving family, conscious of each other and it left sunshine in my soul and a smile on my face, as well as many hilarious new jokes and stories at the front of my mind. I'll try to caption a few of them for your enjoyment. ;)
"Pose for your family album cover."

Gold.

"Show me your band symbol."
I am now part of the family lore. ;)
