#lemon8diarychallenge

As summer draws to a close and fall emerges, I eagerly anticipate the arrival of winter. Fall has always been my favorite season, and not just because of Inktober. This year, I am excited to participate in the Inktober prompts for the first time. I am ready to embrace the challenge of creating a drawing every day for 31 days. 🎃🖌️

📄 My Favorite Quotes: Hairs

“ everybody in our family has different hair. My papa‘s hair is like a broom, all up in the air. And Me, my hair is lazy. And never obeys barrettes or bands. Carlos‘s hair is thick and straight. He doesn’t need to comb. It. Nenny’s hair is slippery slides out of your hand. And Nenny , who is the youngest, has hair like fur. but my mother‘s hair, my mother‘s hair, like little rosettes, like little candy circles, all curly, and pretty because she pinned and pincurls all day sweet to put your nose in, when she is holding you, holding you and you feel safe is the warm smell of bread before you bake it is the smell when she makes room for you on her side of the bed still warm with her skin, and you sleep near her the rain outside falling and Papa snoring. The snoring, the rain, and mamas hair that smells like bread.

💭 My Thoughts:The author skillfully employs descriptive language to capture the unique style, texture, and aroma of her family's hair.
