Charlotte

i sat sketching her

and 

my mom appeared in the drawing!

I showed it to her and she loved the bird on her head

and said the snake could not be her more

she said she once folk danced with a snake wrapped around her like this

i did not know

but i do remember her picking up snakes with glee

and huge tarantulas (spiders)

she has always loved animals

and 

she is a beautiful redhead
