A Present for Dr. King's Birthday

I opened a drawer in search of a pair of earrings to wear in honor of Dr. King, and spotted this tiny green present given to me by sister-in-law Charlene who knew the struggles the craftswoman faced. When I opened the box and saw the tiny white crosses, I decided that these would be perfect for today.

I love Bryan Collier's illustrations in Diane Rappaport's picture book Martin's Big Words, so many of them framed in stained glass.
