New Blessings for My Daughter

When it rains, it pours. I would say this applies to my daughter, who got a new job offer. She is not expecting this opportunity to happen, but she is thankful and excited.

This was N’ office corner during her 2nd internship.

N is determined to improve her craft as a graphic designer. She hopes this new job will take her career to a new level.
