Hello April!

I hope you've all been well! The other day, I sketched out a sequence of images and decided it might be nice to create a little animated .gif out of it. My youngest thought it might be nice if there was a little music in it, and suggested iMovie. I've not ever created anything in iMovie, but thought, why not? So after a lot of tinkering around and trial and error, here's the result.

Wishing you all a very happy April!
~ Shirley
