What an adorable image! I can just imagine the first day of school and the thrill of walking in with a new pink Hello Kitty bag. Life is good. (not voting)

This gets more wonderful the more you see it. Was just looking through the challenge photos and came across it again. Gave it an 8 during the challenge, I'd move it to a 9 or 10 now! Wonderfully done!

Also nice (in addition to the challenge entry). I like the addition of the rake. An excellent use of very nice light!
