Lol, good one Gummy

Haha, how cute!

Windhowella: So Discovery DISCOVERED what mwah meant, right?

The Oracle: Thank you.

Windhowler: Thanks, and what an interesting story. You've made Discovery so like herself! Will definitely consider it with Gummy!

Wow, lovely picture!
*Racks brains for ideas for Io's first few words . . . *


''Mwah!'' said young Io one day.
''Mwha?'' Discovery smiled, looking at Lucius in amusement.
''Mwah!'' repeated Io. She said the word over and over again.

Io seemed to listen intently to whatever her parents said, and from time to time she would interupt their conversations with. ''Mwah! M-m-mwah!' Discovery nor Lucius could figure up the meaning of the word - if it was a word.

Finally, one evening, Dicovery was giving her young daughter a goodnight nuzzle when: ''M-mwah! Div me kiss!''
''A-a-a-a-h! I see!'' Discovery smiled, and she promptly planted a horsey kiss on her daughter's cheek. ''M-wah!''

This is a wonderful piece of art! I love your work with the shading, and the background is simply brilliant.

Aww, my favorite family.

Thank you both!
Gums: Okay, great! Take all the time you need (:

Delightful family pic, Paw. Unfortunately I still have no idea what her first words were . . . I'll have a think. (:

This is so cute!
